Human parainfluenza virus type 3 (hPIV-3) entry and intrahost spread through membrane fusion are initiated by two envelope glycoproteins, hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) and fusion (F) protein. Binding of HN protein to the cellular receptor via its receptor-binding sites triggers conformational changes in the F protein leading to virus-cell fusion. However, little is known about the roles of individual amino acids that comprise the receptor-binding sites in the fusion process. Here, residues R192, D216, E409, R424, R502, Y530 and E54
