Abstract
⺠We examine the role of cellular cholesterol on NDV activities. ⺠Removal of cholesterol partially reduces viral binding, fusion and infectivity. ⺠This negative effect was reversible. ⺠The HN viral attachment protein partially localized to cell lipid rafts at 4 °C. ⺠Cellular cholesterol may be required for optimal cell entry in NDV infection.
