Abstract
⺠We observed in vitro infection with EV71 induced a biphasic activation of ERK. ⺠Inhibition of ERK activation and knockdown of MEK1 clearly impaired virus production. ⺠By contrast, silencing MEK2 expression did not such effect. ⺠Both MEK isoforms were activated and translocated to nucleus upon EV71 infection. ⺠We conclude that only MEK1-ERKs activation is necessary for the virus production.
