Lyn kinase regulates egress of flaviviruses in autophagosome-derived organelles

Egress of flaviviruses and involved host pathways are not well understood. Here, the authors show that Lyn is a critical host kinase for Dengue and Zika virus egress resulting in infectious virus progenies within autophagosome-derived vesicles, which might help the virus to evade antibody responses.
