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.

AbstractChikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a mosquito-transmitted alphavirus that causes epidemics of acute and chronic musculoskeletal disease. Here, we analyzed the human B cell response to a CHIKV-like particle–adjuvanted vaccine (PXVX0317) from samples obtained from a phase 2 clinical trial in humans (NCT03483961). Immunization with PXVX0317 induced high levels of neutralizing antibody in serum against CHIKV and circulating antigen–specific B cells up to 6 months after immunization.
