MeSH Heading: Viral Fusion Proteins
Tree Number(s): D12.776.543.512.500; D12.776.964.970.880.910
Unique ID: D014760
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D014760
Annotation: coord with specific virus; do not confuse with RECOMBINANT FUSION PROTEINS
Scope Note: Proteins, usually glycoproteins, found in the viral envelopes of a variety of viruses. They promote cell membrane fusion and thereby may function in the uptake of the virus by cells.
