Chimeric rat-human SEL-LEL CD81 proteins confer susceptibility to HCVpp and HCVcc infection. HepG2 cells were transduced with packaged lentiviruses expressing parental or human-rat and rat-human SEL-LEL swap proteins. HepG2 cells transduced to express human CD9 or the chimeric human CD81 proteins were infected with (A) HCVpp-H77 (white bars) or VSV-Gpp (shaded bars) or (B) HCVcc encoding a luciferase reporter, J6/JFH(Rluc2Aubi). All infections were performed in triplicate, and mean luciferase activity is shown with standard deviation bars.
