Virion motility of sialoglycan-cleaving respiratory viruses

Abstract Here, we review how respiratory viruses function as molecular motors by exploiting their glycan receptor-binding and -destroying glycoproteins. The resulting virion motility drives their mucus penetration and exploration of cell surfaces for locations permitting induction of entry. We discu...
