THE LENGTH OF VESICULAR STOMATITIS VIRUS PARTICLES DICTATES A NEED FOR ACTIN ASSEMBLY DURING CLATHRIN-DEPENDENT ENDOCYTOSIS.

The length of vesicular stomatitis virus particles dictates a need for actin assembly during clathrin-dependent endocytosis.

Microbial pathogens exploit the clathrin endocytic machinery to enter host cells.Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), an enveloped virus with bullet-shaped virions that measure 70 x 200 nm, enters cells by clathrin-dependent endocytosis.We showed previously that VSV particles exceed the capacity of typical clathrin-coated vesicles and instead enter th

Assessing Bias in Population Size Estimates Among Hidden Populations When Using the Service Multiplier Method Combined With Respondent-Driven Sampling Surveys: Survey Study

BackgroundPopulation size estimates (PSEs) for hidden populations at increased risk of HIV, including female sex workers (FSWs), are important to inform public health policy and resource allocation.The service multiplier method (SMM) is commonly used to estimate the sizes of hidden populations.We used this method to obtain PSEs for FSWs at 9 sites
