Cell-cell fusion limits activation of the unfolded protein response induced by the Nipah virus glycoproteins [PDF]
The productive replication of highly pathogenic Nipah virus (NiV) relies on the host cell for the synthesis and correct folding of the viral glycoproteins, which can cause ER stress and activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR). While the UPR can
