The influence of the pre-membrane and envelope proteins on structure, pathogenicity and tropism of tick-borne encephalitis virus
2024-10-16
Abstract excerpt
Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a neurotropic flavivirus that causes thousands of human infections annually. Viral tropism in the brain is determined by the presence of necessary receptors, entry factors and the ability of the virus to overcome host defenses. The viral structural proteins, pre-membrane (prM) and envelope (E), play an important role in receptor binding, membrane fusion, particle maturation,...
