Structural Basis for Receptor Recognition by Lujo Virus

2018-05-24

Abstract excerpt

Lujo virus (LUJV) has emerged as a novel and highly fatal human pathogen. Despite its membership among the Arenaviridae , LUJV does not classify with the known Old and New World groups of that viral family. Likewise, LUJV was recently found to use neuropilin-2 (NRP2) as a cellular receptor instead of the canonical α-dystroglycan (α-DG) or transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) utilized by Old World (OW) and New World (NW)...
