Receptor Interference (Superinfection Resistance). Env expression in infected, virus-producing cells induces receptor interference. Proposed mechanisms include: (1) blocking trafficking of the receptor to the cell surface; (2) binding of the receptor at the cell surface, thereby blocking new viral particles from binding, and (3) inducing endocytosis and subsequent degradation of the receptor.
