Viral Glycoprotein Processing

Viral glycoprotein processing encompasses all steps from synthesis through post-translational modification—especially glycosylation and proteolysis—that produce mature surface proteins essential for virus infectivity and immune escape. This process is a major focus both in understanding pathogenesis and developing antiviral interventions including vaccines and therapeutics targeting these pathways.
