Zika virus prM protein contains cholesterol binding motifs required for virus entry and assembly

Abstract For successful infection of host cells and virion production, enveloped viruses, including Zika virus (ZIKV), extensively rely on cellular lipids. However, how virus protein–lipid interactions contribute to the viral life cycle remains unclear. Here, we employ a chemo-proteomics approach wi...
