Although viruses must navigate the complex host endomembrane system to infect cells, the strategies used to achieve this is unclear. During entry, polyomavirus SV40 is sorted from the late endosome (LE) to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to cause infection, yet how this is accomplished remains enigmatic. Here we find that EMC4 and EMC7, two ER membrane protein complex (EMC) subunits, support SV40 infection by promoting LE-to-ER targeting of the virus. They do this by engaging LE-associated Rab7, presumably to stabilize co
