Excited to have this story published @plosbiology.org. We were surprised to find lipids are important for entry of a non-enveloped virus and that TMEM30a is important for enteric infection of murine norovirus!
Norovirus tropism depends partly on entry receptors, but what is the role of cellular #lipids? @orchardlab.bsky.social &co show that TMEM30a-mediated lipid asymmetry is crucial for murine #norovirus infection, influencing membrane fluidity, viral binding & entry @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4409MtI
