Brief description A set of proteins, called E3 ligases, modulate many aspects of immunity. Arih 2 is a novel E3 ligase that limits immune cell activation to maintain the immune system in a quiescent state. The details of how Arih2 functions and its role in immunity to chronic overwhelming infection are the focus of this study. The insights gained from these studies have important implications for our understanding of how immune responses can be promoted during infection or halted in autoimmunity.
