Structural Transitions of the Conserved and Metastable Hantaviral Glycoprotein Envelope
24 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
ABSTRACT Hantaviruses are zoonotic pathogens that cause severe hemorrhagic fever and pulmonary syndrome. The outer membrane of the hantavirus envelope displays a lattice of two glycoproteins, Gn and Gc, which orchestrate host cell recognition and entry.
