چکیده

Human CD46 is a cellular receptor for human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6). Virus entry into host cells requires a glycoprotein H (gH)-glycoprotein L (gL) complex. We show that the CD46 ectodomain blocked HHV-6 infection and bound a complex of gH-gL and the 80-kDa U100 gene product, designated glycoprotein Q, indicating that the complex is a viral ligand for CD46.

The human herpesvirus 6 U100 gene product is the third component of the gH-gL glycoprotein complex on the viral envelope.

The human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) variant A U100 gene encodes the third component of the glycoprotein H (gH)-glycoprotein L (gL)-containing complex. Glycosidase digestion analysis showed that the U100 gene products are glycoproteins consisting of an 80-kDa protein with complex N-linked oligosaccharides and a 74-kDa protein with immature, high-mannose N-linked oligosaccharides. Based on these char...

Herpesvirus 6 glycoproteins B (gB), gH, gL, and gQ are necessary and sufficient for cell-to-cell fusion.

The human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) envelope glycoprotein gH/gL/gQ1/gQ2 complex associates with host cell CD46 as its cellular receptor. Although gB has been suggested to be involved in HHV-6 infection, its function in membrane fusion has remained unclear. Here, we have developed an HHV-6A (strain GS)and HHV-6B (strain Z29) virus-free cell-to-cell fusion assay and demonstrate that gB and the gH/gL/...

Intracellular processing of human herpesvirus 6 glycoproteins Q1 and Q2 into tetrameric complexes expressed on the viral envelope.

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) glycoproteins H and L (gH and gL, respectively) and the 80-kDa form of glycoprotein Q (gQ-80K) form a heterotrimeric complex that is found on the viral envelope and that is a viral ligand for human CD46. Besides gQ-80K, the gQ gene encodes an additional product whose mature molecular mass is 37 kDa (gQ-37K) and which is derived from a different transcript. Therefore,...

Analysis of a neutralizing antibody for human herpesvirus 6B reveals a role for glycoprotein Q1 in viral entry.

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is a T cell-tropic betaherpesvirus. HHV-6 can be classified into two variants, HHV-6A and HHV-6B, based on differences in their genetic, antigenic, and growth characteristics and cell tropisms. The function of HHV-6B should be analyzed more in its life cycle, as more than 90% of people have the antibodies for HHV-6B but not HHV-6A. It has been shown that the cellular...

Detailed study of the interaction between human herpesvirus 6B glycoprotein complex and its cellular receptor, human CD134.

UNLABELLED Recently, we identified a novel receptor, CD134, which interacts with the human herpesvirus 6B (HHV-6B) glycoprotein (g)H/gL/gQ1/gQ2 complex and plays a key role in the entry of HHV-6B into target cells. However, details of the interaction between the HHV-6B gH/gL/gQ1/gQ2 complex and CD134 were unknown. In this study, we identified a cysteine-rich domain (CRD), CDR2, of CD134 that is...
