| Exact synonym | clathrin-mediated endocytosis of virus by host cell, viral penetration via clathrin-mediated endocytosis |
| Description | Any clathrin-mediated endocytosis that is involved in the uptake of a virus into a host cell. Begins by invagination of a specific region of the host cell plasma membrane around the bound virus to form a clathrin-coated pit, which then pinches off to form a clathrin-coated endocytic vesicle containing the virus. |
