Interaction of viral protein gp42 with its receptor is the trigger for the entry of Epstein-Barr virus into B cells. The structure of gp42 reported by Kirschner etal. (2009) in this issue of Structure suggests a likely triggering mechanism substantially different from that of a related herpesvirus.
病毒蛋白gp42与其受体的相互作用是爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒进入B细胞的触发因素。Kirschner等人(2009年)在本期《结构》杂志上报道的gp42结构表明,其触发机制可能与相关疱疹病毒的触发机制有很大不同。
