Transcription Factor Redundancy Ensures Induction of the Antiviral State

IRF7 and ISGF3 engage overlapping interferon-stimulated response elements and drive largely overlapping antiviral transcriptomes, so that a substantial interferon-like gene program is still induced when type I and type III interferon signaling are both absent.

Multiple Functions of the IKK-Related Kinase IKKε in Interferon-Mediated Antiviral Immunity

Mice lacking IKKε produce normal interferon-β but fail to induce roughly a third of interferon-stimulated genes, because interferon activates IKKε, which phosphorylates STAT1 at Ser708 and thereby determines whether ISGF3 occupies a subset of response elements.
