EWI-2 Inhibits Cell–Cell Fusion at the HIV-1 Virological Presynapse
Cell-to-cell transfer of virus particles at the Env-dependent virological synapse (VS) is a highly efficient mode of HIV-1 transmission. While cell−cell fusion could be triggered at the VS, leading to the formation of syncytia and preventing exponential growth of the infected cell populati...
