Dengue virus (DENV) is an enveloped RNA virus that causes the most common arthropod-borne
infection worldwide. The mechanism by which DENV infects the host cell remains …

Dengue virus (DENV 1-4) represents a major emerging arthropod-borne pathogen. All four
DENV serotypes are prevalent in the (sub) tropical regions of the world and infect 50–100 …

Flaviviruses, such as dengue virus and West Nile virus, are enveloped viruses that infect cells
through receptor-mediated endocytosis and fusion from within acidic endosomes. The cell …

Cells infected with dengue virus release a high proportion of immature prM-containing virions.
In accordance, substantial levels of prM antibodies are found in sera of infected humans. …

In this study, we investigated the cell entry characteristics of dengue virus (DENV) type 2 strain
S1 on mosquito, BHK-15, and BS-C-1 cells. The concentration of virus particles measured …

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a mosquito-transmitted alphavirus that causes global epidemics
of a debilitating polyarthritis in humans. As there is a pressing need for the development …

Flaviviruses, including Dengue, West Nile, Japanese encephalitis, and Tick‐borne encephalitis
virus, are major emerging human pathogens, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. …

We screened a panel of mouse and human monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against chikungunya
virus and identified several with inhibitory activity against multiple alphaviruses. Passive …

Prior to the release of flavivirus particles from infected cells, the viral surface protein prM is
cleaved to M by the cellular enzyme furin. For dengue virus (DENV), this maturation process …

There is controversy as to whether the cell entry mechanism of Sindbis virus (SIN) involves
direct fusion of the viral envelope with the plasma membrane at neutral pH or uptake by …
