SnapShot: Enveloped Virus Entry
Cell, 2020 In order to initiate successful infection, viruses have to transmit and deliver their genome from one host cell or organism to another. To achieve this, enveloped viruses must first fuse their membrane with those of the target host cell. Here, we describe the sequence of events leading to the entry of representative enveloped viruses, highlighting the ...

Exploiting Herpes Simplex Virus Entry for Novel Therapeutics
Viruses, 2013 Herpes Simplex virus (HSV) is associated with a variety of diseases such as genital herpes and numerous ocular diseases. At the global level, high prevalence of individuals who are seropositive for HSV, combined with its inconspicuous infection, remains ...

Hepatoma cell density promotes claudin-1 and scavenger receptor BI expression and hepatitis C virus internalization. [PDF]
, 2009 Hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry occurs via a pH- and clathrin-dependent endocytic pathway and requires a number of cellular factors, including CD81, the tight-junction proteins claudin 1 (CLDN1) and occludin, and scavenger receptor class B member I (SR-BI).

Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Cell Entry [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 2001 ABSTRACT The process of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) cell entry was examined using assays for virus replication intermediates. FIV subtype B was found to utilize the chemokine receptor CXCR4, but not CCR5, as a cellular receptor. Zidovudine blocked formation of late viral replication products most effectively, including circular DNA ...

Identification of a novel splice variant form of the influenza A virus M2 ion channel with an antigenically distinct ectodomain [PDF]
, 2012 Segment 7 of influenza A virus produces up to four mRNAs. Unspliced transcripts encode M1, spliced mRNA2 encodes the M2 ion channel, while protein products from spliced mRNAs 3 and 4 have not previously been identified.
