Viral Entry
Receptors Viral entry receptors are proteins that act as gateways for the entry of viruses into the host cell. They are critical for the initial step of the infection process, which is the binding of the virus to the host cell. Viral entry receptors are essential for the successful entry and replication of viruses, leading to viral diseases. Since viral entry receptors are involved in pathogenesis, they are important targets for antiviral drugs and therapeutic agents. In addition, they can also be used as biomarkers to diagnose viral infections, and to monitor their progression.
