The study of RIG-I and RIPLET interaction provides a detailed example of how TRIM-like proteins utilize bivalency and CC for regulating substrate selectivity, higher-order oligomerization and innate immune function. Given that an increasing number of receptors and signaling molecules in the innate immune system are shown to multimerize upon activation [77] , it is tempting to speculate that TRIM/TRIM-like proteins may utilize multimer-specific substrate recognition as a common mechanism for regulating their immune functions. The avidity-driven substrate recognition mechanism of TRIM/TRIM-like proteins would thus ensure more precise control of innate immune signaling and restriction functions. ./cache/cord-342653-bpyc2gbl.txt ./txt/cord-342653-bpyc2gbl.txt
