Crystal structure of the T1L reovirus attachment protein sigma1 in complex with the GM2 glycanCrystal structure of the T1L reovirus attachment protein sigma1 in complex with the GM2 glycan
Structural highlights
FunctionSIGM1_REOVL Fiber-like molecule that attaches the virion to the host cell membrane by binding to the primary receptor F11R/JAM-A and to sialic acid containing proteins (coreceptor). The interaction of sigma-1 with F11R is required for NF-kB activation and apoptosis. Binding to both sialic acid and F11R is required to induce maximal levels of apoptosis (By similarity). See Also |
