Abstract: Host factors in flu infectivity Two genome-wide RNA interference screens published in this issue identify human host factors required for influenza A virus replication in lung epithelia cell lines. König et al. identify 295 host genes required for influenza replication. Of those, 219 are required for efficient wild-type virus growth, and 23 are required for viral entry. Karlas et al. report the discovery of 287 host genes influencing virus replication. An independent assay confirmed 168 hits (59%) inhibiting either the endemic H1N1 (119 hits) or the current pandemic swine-origin (121 hits) influenza A virus strains, with an overlap of 60%. These studies should provide a number of potential targets for host factor-directed antivirals for treatment of influenza viral infection.
