Recognition and receptors in virus transmission by arthropods
Trends in Microbiology, 1999Fundamental knowledge of the molecular mechanisms underlying virus transmission by arthropods is a prerequisite for the creation of new strategies to modulate vector competence. There have been several recent advances in identifying the viral and vector determinants involved in virus recognition, attachment and retention.

The Hepatitis B Virus Receptor
Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2015Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection affects 240 million people worldwide. A liver-specific bile acid transporter named the sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) has been identified as the cellular receptor for HBV and its satellite, the hepatitis D virus (HDV).

The Epstein-Barr Virus Receptor
Laboratory Medicine, 1989The Epstein-Barr virus is ubiquitous to the human race. It is responsible for numerous disease states such as infectious mononucleosis, Burkitt's lymphoma, and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. It is an oncogenic DNA virus that is seen in Burkitt's lymphoma. The virus is tropic primarily for B lymphocytes and can exist in these cells as a lymphoblastoid cell ...

Evaluation of influenza A virus receptors
International Congress Series, 2001Abstract Sialic acid has long been considered the sole cellular receptor for influenza viruses, but it has been demonstrated that influenza can infect cells independently of surface sialic acid [Glycobiology 10 (2000) 649]. Here, we evaluate possible alternative influenza virus receptors, and find evidence for specific virus-binding-proteins in vitro

Measles virus receptor on human T lymphocytes
Nature, 1975ONE of the factors which may determine whether or not a cell is susceptible to a particular virus is the presence in the cell membrane of a receptor or a binding site for the virus1. It has been demonstrated that certain viruses, including herpes and myxoviruses, can infect and multiply within lymphocytes2,3.

IN SEARCH OF HEPATITIS C VIRUS RECEPTOR(S)
Clinics in Liver Disease, 2001Since the genomic sequence of HCV was determined, significant progress has been made towards understanding the functions of the HCV-encoded proteins, despite the lack of an efficient in-vitro replication system or convenient small-animal model. The identity of the receptor for HCV remains elusive, however.

Virus-Encoded 7 Transmembrane Receptors
2015Herpesviruses are an ancient group which have exploited gene capture of multiple cellular modulators of the immune response. Viral homologues of 7 transmembrane receptors (v7TMRs) are a consistent feature of beta- and gammaherpesviruses; the majority of the v7TMRs are homologous to cellular chemokine receptors (CKRs).

Identification of a Receptor for Mouse Hepatitis Virus [PDF]
, 1987 There has recently heen renewed interest in the study of virus receptors1, 2. This stems from several causes: increased understanding about interactions of cell surface molecules with other ligands such as toxins and hormones; improved methodologies for studying molecules present on the plasma membrane in very small amounts; comprehensive information ...

Measles virus receptors: SLAM and CD46
Reviews in Medical Virology, 2004AbstractThe success of vaccination against measles in developed countries has significantly reduced the incidence of measles‐related morbidity and mortality. However, measles is still the leading cause of mortality in children from underdeveloped countries due to low vaccination coverage, high transmissibility of the measles virus as well as primary ...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) enters its target cells in a tightly regulated process that relies on several host factors. These host factors can be classified into three distinct categories depending on their role in the entry process, namely attachment factors, entry factors and facilitators.
