At 3 and 6 h after infection, ZIKV RNA levels were comparable in all groups; compared with the control group, ZIKV RNA levels in DGAT2KD cells were decreased by ~7-fold at 12 h after infection, especially by ~9-fold at 24 h after infection (Fig. 2B), indicating that DGAT2 acts at the viral replication step. Here, DGAT2 is linked to infection.
