Irreversible furin cleavage site exposure renders immature tick-borne flaviviruses fully infectious

Abstract Flavivirus assembly is driven by the envelope glycoproteins pre-membrane (prM) and envelope (E) in the neutral pH environment of the endoplasmic reticulum. Newly budded, spiky particles are exported through the Golgi apparatus, where mildly acidic pH induces a major surface rearrangement. T...
