Measles fusion complexes from central nervous system clinical isolates: decreased interaction between hemagglutinin and fusion proteins
2021-06-19
Abstract excerpt
Measles virus (MeV) viral entry is mediated by a fusion complex comprised of a receptor binding protein (hemagglutinin, H) and a fusion protein (F). The wild type H/F complex requires interaction with specific proteinaceous receptors (CD150/SLAM and nectin-4) in order to be activated. In contrast the H/F complexes isolated from viruses infecting the central nervous system (CNS) do not require a specific receptor....
