Epstein-Barr virus entry utilizing HLA-DP or HLA-DQ as a coreceptor.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) glycoprotein gp350/gp220 association with cellular CD21 facilitates virion attachment to B lymphocytes. Membrane fusion requires the additional interaction between virion gp42 and cellular HLA-DR. This binding is thought to catalyze membrane fusion through a further association with the gp85-gp25 (gH-gL) complex. Cell lines expressing CD21 but lacking expression of HLA ...
متن کاملCoreceptor restriction within the HLA-DQ locus for Epstein-Barr virus infection.
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous human herpesvirus that causes infectious mononucleosis and is etiologically associated with malignancies of multiple origins. EBV enters cells through a cascade of interactions between its envelope glycoprotein gp350 and the gp42-gH-gL complex with cellular receptors. Membrane fusion is catalyzed by the binding of gp42, a member of the C type lectin fami...
متن کاملHLA-DP, HLA-DQ, and HLA-DR have different requirements for invariant chain and HLA-DM.
The MHC is central to the adaptive immune response. The human MHC class II is encoded by three different isotypes, HLA-DR, -DQ, and -DP, each being highly polymorphic. In contrast to HLA-DR, the intracellular assembly and trafficking of HLA-DP molecules have not been studied extensively. However, different HLA-DP variants can be either protective or risk factors for infectious diseases (e.g. he...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr virus entry.
One of the many conundrums of herpesvirology is why a herpesvirus is so profligate in its use of four or more envelope glycoproteins for entry into a cell when other viruses can manage very well with only one or two. Profligacy does, however, have its advantages. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), originally recognized for its ability to infect and transform lymphocytes, is now clearly understood to inf...
متن کاملHLAMatchmaker: a molecularly based algorithm for histocompatibility determination. V. Eplet matching for HLA-DR, HLA-DQ, and HLA-DP.
This report describes the design of the eplet version of HLAMatchmaker to determine class II compatibility at the structural level. This matching algorithm is based on the hypothesis, developed from molecular modeling of crystallized antigen-antibody complexes, that functional epitopes are represented by patches of surface-exposed nonself-amino acid residues surrounded by residues within a 3-A ...
