Implication for alphavirus host-cell entry and assembly indicated by a 3.5Å resolution cryo-EM structure
Alphaviruses are enveloped RNA viruses that contain several human pathogens. Here, the authors use block-based reconstruction method and provide a 3.5 Å cryo-EM structure of sindbis virus that identifies a conserved hydrophobic pocket near the viral membrane that is stabilized by an unknown pocket f...
