Expression of mouse viperin-GFP upon HCMV.mVIP infection restored the wild type phenotype in human viperin knockdown cells in terms of expression of GLUT4, ChREBP and lipogenic enzymes (Figure 7A and B), accumulation of LDs (Figure 7C), formation of viral envelope (Figure S6), and production of infectious extracellular and intracellular virus (Figure 7D). Here, SLC2A4 is linked to infection.
