Probing structural changes in single enveloped virus particles using nano-infrared spectroscopic imaging.
Enveloped viruses, such as HIV, Ebola and Influenza, are among the most deadly known viruses.Cellular membrane penetration of enveloped viruses is a critical step in the cascade of events that lead inflatable-anal to entry into the host cell.Conventional ensemble fusion assays rely on collective responses to membrane fusion events, and do not allow
