Examples of glycoprotein in the following topics:
-
- The genome encodes for 11 different glycoproteins, four of which, gB, gC, gD and gH, are involved in viral attachment.
- Initial interactions occur when viral envelope glycoprotein C (gC) binds to a cell surface particle called heparan sulfate.
- A second glycoprotein, glycoprotein D (gD), binds specifically to at least one of three known entry receptors.
- Glycoprotein B interacts with glycosaminoglycans on the surface of the host cell.
- Herpes simplex virus attaches to host cell surface receptors using glycoproteins.
-
- Lactoferrin is a globular glycoprotein with a molecular mass of about 80 kDa.
- Transferrins are iron-binding blood plasma glycoproteins that control the level of free iron in biological fluids .
- Transferrin glycoproteins bind iron very tightly, but reversibly.
-
- The glycoprotein responsible for attachment on the surface of an influenza viral particle is hemagglutinin (HA).
- HA is an antigenic glycoprotein.
- Of special note is HA (hemagglutinin), the glycoprotein critical for influenza attachment and entry into host cells.
-
- Specifically, this consists mostly of exopolysaccharides, glycoproteins, and glycolipids.
- The slime layer is not to be confused with the S-layer, a separate and highly organised glycoprotein layer surrounding many bacterial cells.
-
- HIV enters macrophages and CD4-positive T cells (CD4 is a glycoprotein receptor found on cells) by the adsorption of glycoproteins on its surface to receptors on the target cell, followed by fusion of the viral envelope with the cell membrane and the release of the HIV capsid into the cell .
-
- It has a cell wall made of hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins, a large cup-shaped chloroplast, a large pyrenoid, and an "eyespot" that senses light.
-
- Instead, their walls are made up of glycoprotein rich in glutamate.
-
- Entry of HSV into the host cell involves interactions of several glycoproteins on the surface of the enveloped virus, with receptors on the surface of the host cell.
-
- HIV enters macrophages and T cells by the adsorption of glycoproteins on its surface to receptors on the target cell.
- There, it is cleaved by HIV protease and processed into the two HIV envelope glycoproteins, gp41 and gp120.
-
- One primary gene product is made, but this is cleaved so that there are more than one surface glycoprotein in the mature virus (cleavage is by host enzyme in the Golgi apparatus).
