High flavivirus structural plasticity demonstrated by a non-spherical morphological variant

Dengue (DENV) and Zika (ZIKV) viruses normally display as smooth spherical particles, while DENV can also become bumpy-surfaced, resulting in immune evasion. Here, Morrone et al. report DENV and ZIKV infectious club-shaped particles (clubSP) that display distinct antibody binding properties.
