Animal Virus Entry and Exit

Video not yet published
to the StudyWalks catalog
State

Animal viruses enter cells by endocytosis or fusion, then exit either by budding, which spares the cell, or by lysis, which kills it.

Show

Influenza buds from its host's membrane without killing it, while non-enveloped rhinoviruses accumulate until the cell lyses.

Watch for

Budding does not mean a cell is undamaged — a virus can impair normal function while keeping the cell alive.
