SnapShot: Enveloped Virus Entry

               
                  In order to initiate successful infection, viruses have to transmit and deliver their genome from one host cell or organism to another. To achieve this, enveloped viruses must first fuse their membrane with those of the target host cell. Here, we describe the sequence of events leading to the entry of representative enveloped viruses, highlighting the strategies they use to gain access to the host cell cytosol.
