HUMAN RHINOVIRUS 16 COAT PROTEIN

OverviewOverview

BACKGROUND: Rhinoviruses and the homologous polioviruses have hydrophobic, pockets below their receptor-binding sites, which often contain, unidentified electron density ('pocket factors'). Certain antiviral, compounds also bind in the pocket, displacing the pocket factor and, inhibiting uncoating. However, human rhinovirus (HRV)14, which belongs to, the major group of rhinoviruses that use intercellular adhesion molecule-1, (ICAM-1) as a receptor, has an empty pocket. When antiviral compounds bind, into the empty pocket of HRV14, the roof of the pocket, which is also the, floor of the receptor binding site (the canyon), is deformed, preventing, receptor attachment. The role of the pocket in viral infectivity is not, known. RESULTS: We have determined the structure of HRV16, another ... [(full description)]
