EVIHVR: A platform for analysis of expression, variation and identification of human virus receptors

open access: yesInfectious Medicine, 2022
Motivation: Virus receptors are presented on the cell surfaces of a host and are key for viral infection of host cells. However, no unified resource for the study of viral receptors is currently available.

Host Cellular Receptors for the Peste des Petits Ruminant Virus

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Peste des Petits Ruminant (PPR) is an important transboundary, OIE-listed contagious viral disease of primarily sheep and goats caused by the PPR virus (PPRV), which belongs to the genus Morbillivirus of the family Paramyxoviridae.

The Host Cell Receptors for Measles Virus and Their Interaction with the Viral Hemagglutinin (H) Protein

open access: yesViruses, 2016
The hemagglutinin (H) protein of measles virus (MeV) interacts with a cellular receptor which constitutes the initial stage of infection. Binding of H to this host cell receptor subsequently triggers the F protein to activate fusion between virus and ...

Receptors and routes of dengue virus entry into the host cells.

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2015
Dengue is the most prevalent arthropod-borne viral disease, caused by dengue virus, a member of the Flaviviridae family. Its worldwide incidence is now a major health problem, with 2.5 billion people living in risk areas. In this review, we integrate the

Phosphatidylserine treatment relieves the block to retrovirus infection of cells expressing glycosylated virus receptors

open access: yesRetrovirology, 2005
Background A major determinant of retrovirus host range is the presence or absence of appropriate cell-surface receptors required for virus entry. Often orthologs of functional receptors are present in a wide range of species, but amino acid differences ...

Oligosaccharides as Receptors for JC Virus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2002
ABSTRACT JC virus (JCV) belongs to the polyomavirus family of double-stranded DNA viruses and in humans causes a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy. Its hemagglutination activity and entry into host cells have been reported to depend on an N-linked glycoprotein containing sialic ...

Interactions between the rabies virus and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors: A potential role in rabies virus induced behavior modifications

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
Rabies causes approximately 60,000 casualties annually and has a case fatality rate approaching 100% once clinical signs occur. The glycoprotein on the surface of the virion is important for the host immune response and facilitates interaction of the ...

Cytokine production and signaling pathways in respiratory virus infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
It has been confirmed that respiratory virus infections can induce abberant cytokine production in the host. These cytokines may be associated with both elimination of the virus and complications in the host, such as virus-induced asthma.

Virus recognition of glycan receptors

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Virology, 2019
Attachment of viruses to cell-surface receptors is the initial step in infection. Many mammalian viruses have evolved to recognize receptors that are glycans on cell-surface glycoproteins or glycolipids. Although glycans are a ubiquitous component of mammalian cells, the types of terminal structures expressed vary among different cell-types and tissues,
