Method: Electron Microscopy, Resolution 4.5Å Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function G3F5K5_9FLAV Envelope protein E binding to host cell surface receptor is followed by virus internalization through clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Envelope protein E is subsequently involved in membrane fusion between virion and host late endosomes. Synthesized as a homodimer with prM which acts as a chaperone for envelope protein E. After cleavage of prM, envelope protein E dissociate from small envelope protein M and homodimerizes (By similarity).[SAAS:SAAS026470_004_099774] Publication Abstract from PubMed Dengue virus is a major human pathogen that has four serotypes (DENV1 to -4). Here we report the cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of immature and mature DENV1 at 6- and 4.5-A resolution, respectively. The subnanometer-resolution maps allow accurate placement of all of the surface proteins. Although the immature and mature viruses showed vastly different surface protein organizations, the envelope protein transmembrane (E-TM) regions remain in similar positions. The pivotal role of the E-TM regions leads to the identification of the start and end positions of all surface proteins during maturation. Immature and mature dengue serotype 1 virus structures provide insight into the maturation process.,Kostyuchenko VA, Zhang Q, Tan JL, Ng TS, Lok SM J Virol. 2013 Jul;87(13):7700-7. doi: 10.1128/JVI.00197-13.
