Latest News About Interferon-Inducible Gtpase 5

Updated 2026-04-30 12:07

Here are the most recent, relevant updates I can confirm right now for interferon-inducible GTPase 5 (GBP5/IFN-inducible GTPase 5). The newest item I found in available sources is a 2025 paper describing a mechanism of antiviral activity via inhibition of viral glycoprotein N-linked glycosylation.[1]

Latest confirmed research update (2025)

Background context (helps interpret “latest news”)

If you tell me whether you mean human GBP5 specifically (gene GBP5) or whether you want mouse vs human, I can narrow the “latest news” to the exact organism and disease area (e.g., COVID-19, HIV, inflammasome/NLRP3, cancer immunology).

Interferon-induced GTPases orchestrate host cell-autonomous ...

Interferon (IFN)-induced guanosine triphosphate hydrolysing enzymes (GTPases) have been identified as cornerstones of IFN-mediated cell-autonomous defence. Upon IFN stimulation, these GTPases are highly expressed in various host cells, where they ...

Viral infection induces production of type I interferons and expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) that play key roles in inhibiting viral infection. Here, we show that the ISG guanylate-binding protein 5 (GBP5) inhibits N-linked ...
