Viral membrane fusion and nucleocapsid delivery into the cytoplasm are distinct events in some flaviviruses.

Flaviviruses deliver their genome into the cell by fusing the viral lipid membrane to an endosomal membrane. The sequence and kinetics of the steps required for nucleocapsid delivery into the cytoplasm remain unclear. Here we dissect the cell entry pathway of virions and virus-like particles from tw...
