Enveloped viruses possess a membrane composed of a complex mixture of host‐derived lipids, glycolipids, and viral glycoproteins, which play a critical role in host–virus interactions. Viral glycoproteins can be detected by a range of immune lectins, thereby modulating and sometimes subverting the host immune responses...
