Glycosphingolipids as Receptors for Non-Enveloped Viruses [PDF]
Viruses, 2010 Glycosphingolipids are ubiquitous molecules composed of a lipid and a carbohydrate moiety. Their main functions are as antigen/toxin receptors, in cell adhesion/recognition processes, or initiation/modulation of signal transduction pathways.

Non-enveloped virus membrane penetration: New advances leading to new insights.
PLoS Pathogens, 2022 Host cell membranes pose a particular challenge for non-enveloped viruses. Whereas enveloped viruses enter cells by fusing their lipid envelopes with the cellular membrane, non-enveloped viruses generally must (1) enter cells via endocytosis, then (2 ...
