Integrins as Herpesvirus Receptors and Mediators of the Host Signalosome
8 Aug 2016
Abstract excerpt
The repertoire of herpesvirus receptors consists of nonintegrin and integrin molecules. Integrins interact with the conserved glycoproteins gH/gL or gB. This interaction is a conserved biology across the Herpesviridae family, likely directed to promote virus entry and endocytosis. Herpesviruses exploit this interaction to execute a range of critical functions that include (a) relocation of nonintegrin receptors...
