Endosomes are involved in uncoating of the incoming virion. Correct Answer True

Endosomes are involved in the uncoating of incoming virions. These are called acidic endosomes and M2 protein forms the tetrameric transmembrane ion channel which reduces pH gradient in acidic endosomes. These endosomes also help in the transport of newly synthesized hemagglutinin from the trans-Golgi cisternae to the plasma membrane.
