Using an overexpression experiment, Fung showed that JNK/MAPK8 participated in coronavirus–host interaction [27], so silencing lncRNA−MSTRG.16919.1 may affect the expression of SKIV2L2, JAK2, PIK3CB and MAPK8 proteins and then regulate the infection of MDBK cells by BHV−1. Here, MAPK8 is linked to infection.
