Abstract The sustained human-to-human transmission of Clade IIb monkeypox virus (MPXV) during the 2022 outbreak underscores the need to define host determinants of viral fitness across species. ISG15 encodes a ubiquitin-like modifier with antiviral activity, yet its role in MPXV infection and host adaptation remains unclear. Using representative strains from Clades Ib and II, we identify a striking species-specific difference in ISG15-mediated restriction.
