Human parainfluenza virus 3 field strains undergo extracellular fusion protein cleavage to activate entry

ABSTRACT Human parainfluenza virus 3 (HPIV3) infection is driven by the coordinated action of viral surface glycoproteins hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) and fusion protein (F). Receptor-engaged HN activates F to insert into the target cell membrane and drive virion-cell membrane fusion. For F to m...
