Human P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 is a functional receptor for enterovirus 71

TL;DR: Nishimura et al. as mentioned in this paper identified two different receptors for EV71, P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 ((PSGL-1) and scavenger receptor class B, member 2 (SCARB2).
Journal ArticleDOI

Hepatitis C virus RNA replication is regulated by FKBP8 and Hsp90.

TL;DR: It is shown that NS5A specifically interacts with FKBP8, a member of the FK506‐binding protein family, but not with other homologous immunophilins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enterovirus 71 Binding to PSGL-1 on Leukocytes: VP1-145 Acts as a Molecular Switch to Control Receptor Interaction

TL;DR: It is proposed that conserved lysine residues on the virus surface are responsible for interaction with sulfated tyrosine residues at the PS GL-1 N-terminus, and that VP1-145 acts as a switch, controlling PSGL-1 binding by modulating the exposure ofVP1-244K.
