Caption

This is the cover illustration of the newest issue of Cell Host & Microbes. In the background in gray is a normal, two-dimensional image of the virus on an electron microscope. The 3D model is superimposed. The tubules of the endoplasmic reticulum and inside them the balloon-like vesicles where the dengue virus replicates its genome can be seen.
