Role of Viral Envelope Proteins in Determining Susceptibility of Viruses to IFITM Proteins

Interferon-induced transmembrane proteins (IFITMs) are a family of proteins which inhibit infections of various enveloped viruses. While their general mechanism of inhibition seems to be non-specific, involving the tightening of membrane structures to prevent fusion between the viral envelope and ce...
