Fusion of mature HIV-1 particles leads to complete release of a gag-GFP-based content marker and raises the intraviral pH.
By imaging the release of a GFP-based viral content marker produced upon virus maturation, we have previously found that HIV-1 fuses with endosomes. In contrast, fusion at the cell surface did not progress beyond a lipid mixing stage (hemifusion). However, recent evidence suggesting that free GFP ca...
