symbiont-mediated suppression of host mRNA transcription via inhibition of RNA polymerase II activity

Term ID

GO:0039523

Synonyms

• inhibition of host RNA polymerase II activity by virus
• inhibition of host RNA polymerase II by virus
• negative regulation by virus of host RNA polymerase II activity
• suppression by virus of host mRNA transcription via inhibition of RNA polymerase II activity
• suppression by virus of host RNA polymerase II activity

Definition

A process in which a symbiont inhibits or disrupts the transcription of genes into mRNA in its host by directly inhibiting host RNA polymerase II activity. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. (2)
