part of symbiont genome entry into host cell via pore formation in plasma membrane https://github.com/geneontology/go-ontology/issues/26670 viral genome delivery via icosahedral vertex viral entry via genome injection membrane puncture-mediated penetration of viral genome into host cell GO:0044694 viral pore-forming protein This mechanism is used by animal viruses such as poliovirus. Various tailed bacteriophages also carry specialized proteins which open a pore or a channel in the host membrane(s) to allow genome delivery into host cytoplasm. jl VZ:979 Entry of a symbiont's genome into a host cell by a pore formed by the symbiont in the host cell. Examples of this process include injection by a non-enveloped virus of the viral genome into the host cytoplasm, usually mediated by a viral pore-forming peptide associated with the viral capsid or bacteriophage tail. pore-mediated penetration of viral genome into host cell 2012-08-16T11:08:02Z pore-mediated entry of viral genome into host cell viral genome translocation biological_process symbiont entry into host cell symbiont-mediated perturbation of host membrane
