25-Hydroxycholesterol Inhibition of Lassa Virus Infection through Aberrant GP1 Glycosylation
ABSTRACT Lassa virus (LASV) infection is a major public health concern due to high fatality rates and limited effective treatment. The interferon-stimulated gene cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the production of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC). 25HC is involved in re...
