The Viral Class II Membrane Fusion Machinery: Divergent Evolution from an Ancestral Heterodimer

A key step during the entry of enveloped viruses into cells is the merger of viral and cell lipid bilayers. This process is driven by a dedicated membrane fusion protein (MFP) present at the virion surface, which undergoes a membrane–fusogenic conformational change triggered by interactions with the...
