Tetraspanins: Host Factors in Viral Infections
Tetraspanins are transmembrane glycoproteins that have been shown increasing interest as host factors in infectious diseases. In particular, they were implicated in the pathogenesis of both non-enveloped (human papillomavirus (HPV)) and enveloped (human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Zika, influenza...

Tetraspanins are transmembrane glycoproteins that have been shown increasing interest as host factors in infectious diseases.
