Structures of phlebovirus glycoprotein Gn and identification of a neutralizing antibody epitope [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017 Significance Bunyaviruses are emerging zoonotic pathogens of public-health concern. Lack of structures for proteins on the viral membrane (“envelope”) surface limits understanding of entry. We describe atomic-level structures for the globular “head” of the envelope protein, glycoprotein N (Gn), from two members, severe fever with
