Densovirus Infectious Pathway Requires Clathrin-Mediated Endocytosis Followed by Trafficking to the Nucleus
19 Feb 2009
Abstract excerpt
Junonia coenia densovirus (JcDNV) is an ambisense insect parvovirus highly pathogenic for lepidopteran pests at larval stages. The potential use of DNVs as biological control agents prompted us to reinvestigate the host range and cellular mechanisms of infection. In order to understand the early events of infection, we set up a functional infection assay in a cell line of the pest Lymantria dispar to determine...
