Members of the low density lipoprotein receptor family mediate cell entry of a minor-group common cold virus.

چکیده
A protein binding to a minor-group human rhinovirus (HRV2) was purified from HeLa cell culture supernatant. The amino acid sequences of tryptic peptides showed identity with the human low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor (LDLR). LDL and HRV2 mutually competed for binding sites on human fibroblasts. Cells down-regulated for LDLR expression yielded much less HRV2 upon infection than cells with up-regulated LDLR. Virus also bound to the large subunit of the alpha 2-macroglobulin receptor/LDLR-related protein (alpha 2MR/LRP). LDLR-deficient fibroblasts yielded considerably less virus in the presence of receptor-associated protein (RAP), providing evidence that alpha 2MR/LRP also acts as a minor group HRV receptor.

Very-low-density lipoprotein receptor fragment shed from HeLa cells inhibits human rhinovirus infection.
The large family of human rhinoviruses, the main causative agents of the common cold, is divided into the major and the minor group based on receptor specificity. Major group viruses attach to intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, whereas minor group viruses use low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR) for cell entry. During early attempts aimed...
متن کاملViral evolution toward change in receptor usage: adaptation of a major group human rhinovirus to grow in ICAM-1-negative cells.
Major receptor group common cold virus HRV89 was adapted to grow in HEp-2 cells, which are permissive for minor group human rhinoviruses (HRVs) but which only marginally support growth of major-group viruses. After 32 blind passages in these cells, each alternating with boosts of the recovered virus in HeLa cells, HRV89 acquired the capacity to effectively replicate in HEp-2 cells, attaining vi...
متن کاملSpecies-specific receptor recognition by a minor-group human rhinovirus (HRV): HRV serotype 1A distinguishes between the murine and the human low-density lipoprotein receptor.
Human rhinoviruses (HRV) of the minor receptor group use several members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor superfamily for cell entry. These proteins are evolutionarily highly conserved throughout species and are almost ubiquitously expressed. Their common building blocks, cysteine-rich ligand binding repeats about 40 amino acids in length, exhibit considerable sequence similarity. Variou...
متن کاملMechanism of human rhinovirus infections
About 150 human rhinovirus serotypes are responsible for more than 50 % of recurrent upper respiratory infections. Despite having similar 3D structures, some bind members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor family, some ICAM-1, and some use CDHR3 for host cell infection. This is also reflected in the pathways exploited for cellular entry. We found that even rhinovirus serotypes binding the ...
متن کاملA mutation in the first ligand-binding repeat of the human very-low-density lipoprotein receptor results in high-affinity binding of the single V1 module to human rhinovirus 2.
Minor group human rhinoviruses (HRVs) bind members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor family for cell entry. The ligand-binding domains of these membrane proteins are composed of various numbers of direct repeats of about 40 amino acids in length. Residues involved in binding of module 3 (V3) of the very-low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) to HRV2 have been identified by X-ray crystal...
