Sub-Type of Molecule Receptor Affinity to SeV Ref. Function in Normal Human Cells Expression in Normal Human Cells
Glycoproteins
Human asialoglyco-protein receptor 1 ASGR1 High [145,156] Removes the target glycoproteins from circulation in the liver Hepatocytes [14,15,16]
Bovine glycoprotein 2 Glycoprotein2/GP2 High [155] -
Human sialo-glycoprotein Glycophorin A/GYPA/CD235a High [157] Defines the antigenic determinants for some blood groups Bone marrow, immune cells, [14,15,16]
Fucosylated glycans
Tetra-saccharide Sialyl Lewis-x antigen (sLeX/CD15s) High [158] Serves as a blood group antigen and participates in cell-cell recognition process. Bone marrow, erythrocytes [14,15,16]
