Researchers captured the structure of a new neutralizing antibody (blue) binding to the measles fusion glycoprotein (green). This antibody elicits a unique neutralizing mechanism explained through a combination of cell-based assays and structural biology. Credit: Dawid Zyla, LJI What happens when the measles virus meets a human cell? The viral machinery unfolds in just the right way to reveal key pieces that let it fuse itself into the host cell membrane. Once the fusion process is complete, the host cell is a goner. It belongs to the virus now. Scientists Read More
