Abstract:As part of the type I IFN signaling, the 2’-5’- oligoadenylate synthetase (OAS) proteins have been involved in the progression of several non-viral diseases. Notably, OAS has been correlated with immune-modulatory functions that promote chronic inflammatory conditions, autoimmune disorders, cancer, and infectious diseases.

In this study, we have used homology modeling… Show more
