Various host factors are involved in the cellular entry of hepatitis C virus (HCV). In addition to
the factors previously reported, we discovered that the very-low-density lipoprotein receptor …

Internalization and molecular interactions of human CD21 receptor

J Tessier, A Cuvillier, F Glaudet, AA Khamlichi - Molecular immunology, 2007 - Elsevier
The human CD21 is a receptor for cleavage fragments of the third complement component
and for Epstein-Barr virus. Previous mutational studies showed that the cytoplasmic domain …

Syndecan-1 serves as the major receptor for attachment of hepatitis C virus to the surfaces of hepatocytes

Q Shi, J Jiang, G Luo - Journal of virology, 2013 - Am Soc Microbiol
Our recent studies demonstrated that apolipoprotein E mediates cell attachment of hepatitis
C virus (HCV) through interactions with the cell surface heparan sulfate (HS). HS is known to …

E Soldaini, A Wack, U D'Oro, S Nuti… - European journal of …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Binding of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) envelope protein E2 to CD81 provides a costimulatory
signal for human T cells. This phenomenon may play a role in liver damage and …

Dissecting the role of putative CD81 binding regions of E2 in mediating HCV entry: putative CD81 binding region 1 is not involved in CD81 binding

KB Rothwangl, B Manicassamy, SL Uprichard, L Rong - Virology journal, 2008 - Springer
Abstract Background Hepatitis C virus (HCV) encodes two transmembrane glycoproteins E1
and E2 which form a heterodimer. E1 is believed to mediate fusion while E2 has been …
