C-type lectins L-SIGN and DC-SIGN capture and transmit infectious hepatitis C virus pseudotype particles.
The molecular mechanisms involved in the hepatic tropism of hepatitis C virus (HCV) have not been identified. We have shown previously that liver-expressed C-type lectins L-SIGN and DC-SIGN bind the HCV E2 glycoprotein with high affinity (Lozach, P. Y., Lortat-Jacob, H., de Lacroix de Lavalette, A., Staropoli, I., Foung, S., Amara, A., Houles, C., Fieschi, F., Schwartz, O., Virelizier, J. L., A...
متن کاملC-type lectins DC-SIGN and L-SIGN mediate cellular entry by Ebola virus in cis and in trans.
Ebola virus is a highly lethal pathogen responsible for several outbreaks of hemorrhagic fever. Here we show that the primate lentiviral binding C-type lectins DC-SIGN and L-SIGN act as cofactors for cellular entry by Ebola virus. Furthermore, DC-SIGN on the surface of dendritic cells is able to function as a trans receptor, binding Ebola virus-pseudotyped lentiviral particles and transmitting ...
متن کاملL-SIGN (CD209L) and DC-SIGN (CD209) mediate transinfection of liver cells by hepatitis C virus.
Target cell tropism of enveloped viruses is regulated by interactions between viral and cellular factors during transmission, dissemination, and replication within the host. Binding of viral envelope glycoproteins to specific cell-surface receptors determines susceptibility to viral entry. However, a number of cell-surface molecules bind viral envelope glycoproteins without mediating entry. Ins...
متن کاملHepatitis C virus targets DC-SIGN and L-SIGN to escape lysosomal degradation.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major health problem. However, the mechanism of hepatocyte infection is largely unknown. We demonstrate that the dendritic cell (DC)-specific C-type lectin DC-SIGN and its liver-expressed homologue L-SIGN/DC-SIGNR are important receptors for HCV envelope glycoproteins E1 and E2. Mutagenesis analyses demonstrated that both HCV E1 and E2 bind the same binding site on ...
متن کاملDC-SIGN and L-SIGN are high affinity binding receptors for hepatitis C virus glycoprotein E2.
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome codes for highly mannosylated envelope proteins, which are naturally retained in the endoplasmic reticulum. We found that the HCV envelope glycoprotein E2 binds the dendritic cell-specific intercellular adhesion molecule 3-grabbing nonintegrin (DC-SIGN) and the related liver endothelial cell lectin L-SIGN through high-mannose N-glycans. Competing ligands such ...
