The radical S-adenosyl methionine domain-containing protein 2 (RSAD2), also known as viperin, plays a momentous and multifaceted role in antiviral immunity. However, the function of viperin is uninvestigated in golden pompano, Trachinotus ovatus. In the present study, a viperin homolog, named To-viperin, was cloned and characterized from golden pompano, and its role in response to grouper iridovirus (SGIV) and nervous necrosis virus (NNV) infection was investigated.
