Human LAMP1 accelerates Lassa virus fusion and potently promotes fusion pore dilation upon forcing viral fusion with non-endosomal membrane

This study investigates the role of human LAMP1 in LASV fusion, showing it accelerates pore formation but only modestly increases infection, with enhanced pore dilation when fusion is forced at the plasma membrane.
