Nanoscale Electrical and Coarse-grained Molecular Dynamics Studies of Influenza Hemagglutinin-mediated Membrane Fusion Pores
Fusion of viral and host membranes is a key step during infection by membrane-enclosed viruses. The fusion pore plays a critical role, and must dilate to release the viral genome. Prior studies of fusion mediated by influenza A hemagglutinin (HA) revealed ~2-5 nm pores that flickered before dilating...
