Characterization of Junin arenavirus cell entry
Junin virus (JUNV) entry is conducted by receptor-mediated endocytosis. To explore the cellular entry mechanism of JUNV, inhibitory effects of drugs affecting the main endocytic pathways on JUNV entry into Vero cells were analysed. Compounds that impair clathrin-mediated endocytosis were shown to re...

Junin virus (JUNV) entry is conducted by receptor-mediated endocytosis.
