General Information
Term symbiont-mediated suppression of host defenses ID (Ontology) GO:0044414 (Gene Ontology)
Definition A process in which a symbiont interferes with, inhibits or disrupts the normal execution of host defense(s) by active mechanisms that normally result in the shutting down of a host pathway. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction.
Also Known As "down regulation by symbiont of host defense response" ; "down-regulation by symbiont of host defense response" ; "downregulation by symbiont of host defense response" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
