Viral fusion proteins of classes II and III recognize and reorganize complex biological membranes

Abstract Viral infection requires stable binding of viral fusion proteins to host membranes, which contain hundreds of lipid species. The mechanisms by which fusion proteins utilize specific host lipids to drive virus–host membrane fusion remains elusive. We conducted molecular simulations of classe...
