The pathogenesis of the dengue virus (DV) infection has not been well defined. We have reported that actin and Rab8 are involved in DV2 infection. Myosin Vc (Myo5c) is a novel member of the class V myosins and regulates the actin-mediated membrane trafficking associated with Rab8. In this study, the involvement of Myo5c in the release of DV2 was investigated in HpeG2 cells.
