Keywords alphavirus receptor structure pathogenesis therapy cryoelectron microscopy Introduction Alphaviruses are arthropod-transmitted viruses that infect many vertebrate hosts.1 The encephalitic alphaviruses, including Eastern equine encephalitic virus (EEEV), Venezuelan equine encephalitic virus (VEEV), and Western equine encephalitic virus (WEEV), are neurotropic in both horses and humans and cause lethality or long-term neurological sequelae.2 Whereas some bird species serve as enzootic...

As a senior editor at New York Review Books, I admit that I’m not an expert on buildings. But as the editor of the NYRB’s comics imprint, I do consider myself proficient in assessing rat drawings. In 2015, upwards of six to ten people sent me the pizza rat video with comments along the lines of “you should see this” because I talked about rats a lot, both in real and cartoon form.

In the early 1940s William George Pope, and his wife Mildred “Moodie” Pope, left Utica, NY and bought a farm. They named it High Acres, and started raising Ayeshire Cattle. Pope had been an engineering teacher up to this point in his life, but his passion for High Acres is made clear in the daily journals he kept.

AbstractMembers of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) family, including LDLRAD3, VLDLR, and ApoER2, were recently described as entry factors for different alphaviruses. However, based on studies with gene edited cells and knockout mice, blockade or abrogation of these receptors does not fully inhibit alphavirus infection, indicating the existence of additional uncharacterized entry factors.

Highlights Proteinaceous receptors bind distinct sites of the alphavirus glycoprotein to mediate efficient cellular entry. The cleft formed by E1–E2 heterodimers is utilized by the mammalian MXRA8 to bind Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) and LDLRAD3 to bind Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV).

AbstractThe very low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) is comprised of eight LDLR type A (LA) domains and supports entry of distantly related Eastern equine encephalitis (EEEV) and Semliki Forest (SFV) alphaviruses. Here, by resolving multiple cryo-electron microscopy structures of EEEV-VLDLR complexes and performing mutagenesis and functional studies, we show that EEEV uses multiple sites (E1/E2 cleft and E2 A domain) to engage different LA domains simultaneously.
