Association between human genetic variants affecting the host NK cell response and the development of herpes simplex virus type 1 encephalitis

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 95, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Herpes simplex virus encephalitis (HSE) is a rare complication of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV‐1) infection or reactivation. It is so far unclear why only few patients develop HSE. As natural killer (NK) cells provide an important defense against HSV‐1, we investigated whether there is an association between distinct human genetic variants

Structural basis of nectin-1 recognition by pseudorabies virus glycoprotein D. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2017
An early and yet indispensable step in the alphaherpesvirus infection is the engagement of host receptors by the viral envelope glycoprotein D (gD). Of the thus-far identified gD receptors, nectin-1 is likely the most effective in terms of its wide usage
