The reduction of ANKS4B upon ZIKV infection was caused by decrease of two hepatocyte nuclear factors HNF1α and HNF4α. Through CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing system, we generated two ANKS4B knockout (KO) cell clones in A549 and Huh7 cells respectively. The gene discussed is HNF1A; the disease is Zika virus infectious disease.
