Dot1L inhibition caused an increase in viral replication, higher in cells infected with the natural isolates, which suggests a general role of H3K79 methylation in control of the influenza virus life cycle. At 8 h, we found a weak increase on IFNβ, IFN-stimulated gene 56 (ISG56) and interferon-induced protein Mx1 (Mx1) RNA levels after IFNαβ addition or influenza virus infection, and Dot1L inhibitor treatment did not significantly decreased their accumulation (Fig. 6B,C) . Given the role of H3K79 methylation in the control of IFN signaling, we analyzed the effect of Dot1L inhibitor on influenza virus replication in cells with normal or deficient IFN responses. Since H3K79 methylation does not affect influenza virus replication in cells with impaired IFN signaling, we analyzed the effect of Dot1L inhibitor in subsequent stages of viral infection. ./cache/cord-002844-jv42o789.txt ./txt/cord-002844-jv42o789.txt
