(a) Normalized mean times to fusion and endocytosis plotted as functions of k_f/p₁, the fusion rate per coreceptor-spike complex. Parameters used were M = N = 100, q₁/p₁ = 50, k_e/p₁ = 0.001. (b) Normalized mean times to fusion and endocytosis plotted as functions of k_e/p₁. Here, M = N = 100, q₁/p₁ = 5, and k_f/p₁ = 10⁻⁶, were used. For reference, Q_e, the corresponding probability that the virus undergoes endocytosis is also plotted.
