| UniProt functional annotation for Q69467 | |||
| UniProt code: Q69467. |
| Organism: | Human herpesvirus 2 (strain HG52) (HHV-2) (Human herpes simplex virus 2). | |
| Taxonomy: | Viruses; Duplodnaviria; Heunggongvirae; Peploviricota; Herviviricetes; Herpesvirales; Herpesviridae; Alphaherpesvirinae; Simplexvirus. | |
| Function: | Envelope glycoprotein that binds to the potential host cell entry receptors TNFRSF14/HVEM and NECTIN1. May trigger fusion with host membrane, by recruiting the fusion machinery composed of gB and gH/gL (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Subunit: | Homodimer (By similarity). Interacts with host receptor TNFRSF14. Interacts with host receptor NECTIN1. Interacts with host receptor NECTIN2. Interacts (via profusion domain) with gB; this interaction occurs in the absence of gH/gL. Interacts (via profusion domain) with gH/gL heterodimer; this interaction occurs in the absence of gB. Associates with the gB-gH/gL-gD complex. Interacts (via C- terminus) with UL11 tegument protein (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Virion membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Note=During virion morphogenesis, this protein probably accumulates in the endosomes and trans-Golgi where secondary envelopment occurs. {ECO:0000250}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the herpesviridae glycoprotein D family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
