Following successful attachment to α-DG on cells, LASV is internalized via [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinocytosis macropinocytosis], and the GPC facilitates membrane fusion at the acidic environment of a late endosomal compartment. Recent studies have shown that successful infection by LASV requires it to switch in a pH-dependent manner from α-DG to LAMP1.
