Dasatinib and Torin 1 block translation of CHIKV sgmRNA. In this study, we found that CHIKV is sensitive to the SFK inhibitor dasatinib, the PI3K inhibitor LY294002, and the mTORC1/2 inhibitors Torin 1 and PP242. We show that dasatinib and Torin 1 block CHIKV sgmRNA translation. In contrast, inhibitors of the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK pathway did not block CHIKV sgmRNA translation.
