IFITM proteins restrict viral membrane hemifusion.

IFITM proteins restrict viral membrane hemifusion.

The interferon-inducible transmembrane (IFITM) protein family represents a new class of cellular restriction factors that block early stages of viral replication; the underlying mechanism is currently not known. Here we provide evidence that IFITM proteins restrict membrane fusion induced by represe...
