Figure 12. Virus transport across the ONM in the absence of the fusion proteins gB/gH.

Figure 12.

gB/gH null virions accumulate in the PNS-ER compartment. The arrows (inserted by P. Wild) point to interactions of virus particles with the ONM and ER membranes showing the characteristics of budding. The fusion proteins gB/gH are missing. Therefore, these virus membrane interactions represent various stages of budding – not of fusion.
