The structure of a prokaryotic viral envelope protein expands the landscape of membrane fusion proteins
Lipid membrane fusion is an essential function in many biological processes but little is known about membrane fusion in prokaryotes. The authors here study how haloarchaeal pleomorphic viruses (HRPVs) infect archaeal hosts. The structure-function analysis of the spike proteins shed light on prokary...

| Sumario: | Lipid membrane fusion is an essential function in many biological processes but little is known about membrane fusion in prokaryotes. The authors here study how haloarchaeal pleomorphic viruses (HRPVs) infect archaeal hosts. The structure-function analysis of the spike proteins shed light on prokaryotic membrane fusion. |
