Imaging single retrovirus entry through alternative receptor isoforms and intermediates of virus-endosome fusion.
A large group of viruses rely on low pH to activate their fusion proteins that merge the viral envelope with an endosomal membrane, releasing the viral nucleocapsid. A critical barrier to understanding these events has been the lack of approaches to study virus-cell membrane fusion within acidic end...
