Consistent with our findings, the authors noted that the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) made numerous contacts with VF, which they suggested may indicate a role for RER in the transport of newly synthesized viral proteins to the VF, as is the case for rubella virus (64).

joeyevenson on 31 Oct 14The rough endoplasmic reticulum may be involved in the transport of newly synthesizes viral proteins to the viral factory, could an antiviral that targets the endoplasmic reticulum prevent these newly synthesized proteins from ever getting that far? Does the host do this as a response to the virus? Or is it the virus controlling the cell to transport the viral proteins?
