Identification of specific histidines as pH sensors in flavivirus membrane fusion.

The Journal of cell biology - 20 Oct 2008

Fritz Richard, Stiasny Karin, Heinz Franz X

Abstract excerpt

The flavivirus membrane fusion machinery, like that of many other enveloped viruses, is triggered by the acidic pH in endosomes after virus uptake by receptor-mediated endocytosis. It has been hypothesized that conserved histidines in the class II fusion protein E of these viruses function as mol...
