Membrane Rafts: Portals for Viral Entry [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Membrane rafts are dynamic, small (10–200 nm) domains enriched with cholesterol and sphingolipids that compartmentalize cellular processes. Rafts participate in roles essential to the lifecycle of different viral families including virus entry, assembly ...

An aquatic virus exploits the IL6-STAT3-HSP90 signaling axis to promote viral entry.

open access: goldPLoS Pathogens, 2023
Viral seasonality in the aquaculture industry is an important scientific issue for decades. While the molecular mechanisms underpinning the temperature-dependent pathogenesis of aquatic viral diseases remain largely unknown.

SLC38A9 regulates SARS-CoV-2 viral entry [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: SARS-CoV-2 viral entry into host cells depends on the cleavage of spike (S) protein into S1 and S2 proteins. Such proteolytic cleavage by furin results in the exposure of a multibasic motif on S1, which is critical for SARS-CoV-2 viral infection

The Role of Orthobunyavirus Glycoprotein Gc in the Viral Life Cycle: From Viral Entry to Egress [PDF]

open access: goldMolecules
Orthobunyavirus refers to the virus members within the Genus Orthobunyavirus, which is the largest virus genus in the Family Peribunyaviridae and even Class Bunyaviricetes.

Inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 viral entry upon blocking N- and O-glycan elaboration

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, its receptor-binding domain (RBD), and its primary receptor ACE2 are extensively glycosylated. The impact of this post-translational modification on viral entry is yet unestablished.

Monitoring Viral Entry in Real-Time Using a Luciferase Recombinant Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Producing SARS-CoV-2, EBOV, LASV, CHIKV, and VSV Glycoproteins

open access: yesViruses, 2020
Viral entry is the first stage in the virus replication cycle and, for enveloped viruses, is mediated by virally encoded glycoproteins. Viral glycoproteins have different receptor affinities and triggering mechanisms.

mGem: The complexity of viral entry—one virus, many receptors [PDF]

open access: yesmBio
Binding to cellular receptors initiates viral replication and dictates sites in the host infected by the virus. As illustrated by mammalian orthoreovirus (reovirus), viruses can bind several types of receptors using distinct capsid components to ...

Hepatitis C viral entry inhibitors prolong viral suppression by replication inhibitors in persistently-infected Huh7 cultures. [PDF]

open access: goldPLoS ONE, 2013
Efforts to treat HCV patients are focused on developing antiviral combinations that lead to the eradication of infection. Thus, it is important to identify optimal combinations from the various viral inhibitor classes.

Influenza hemagglutinin drives viral entry via two sequential intramembrane mechanisms

open access: greenProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Viral proteins that accomplish membrane fusion between the virus and a host cell do two things: draw virus and host membranes together and act within these membranes to induce fusion.

Hepatitis C virus cell-cell transmission and resistance to direct-acting antiviral agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is transmitted between hepatocytes via classical cell entry but also uses direct cell-cell transfer to infect neighboring hepatocytes.
