Identifying biophysical determinants of virus-cell fusion through live-cell imaging

Abstract:

The biophysical properties of both enveloped virus and cell membranes must be favourable for successful fusion and entry of the virus into its host. Characterising these properties in cells and virions is critical for understanding and manipulating target cell susceptibility to infection, as well as blocking infection by cell-autonomous antiviral proteins. To characterise such properties, we developed imaging assays multiplexing genetically-encoded biosensors concomitant with single virus ...
