The structure of human rhinovirus 16

Abstract: We conjecture that the binding of the receptor to HRV16 can occur only when the pocket is temporarily empty, when it is possible for the canyon floor to be deformed downwards into the pocket. We further propose that the role of the pocket factor is to stabilize virus in transit from one host cell to the next, and that binding of ICAM-1 traps the pocket in the empty state, destabilizing the virus as required for uncoating.

“…Alternatively, Fab-virus interactions might facilitate the binding of this small compound but, because conformational changes do not occur at the contact interfaces upon Fab binding, it is unlikely that the canyon floor would be affected by Fab binding. Nevertheless, the appearance of this density raises the possibility that previously observed 'pocket factors' 10 , which bind to the same site on other serotypes of HRV and give a nearly identical appearance, may have come from the crystallization mother liquor rather than from the host cell.…”

“…Since then, structures of several other picornaviruses have been described (1,34,35,41,48,56,62,(65)(66)(67)84,85,104,112,121,122). The protein shell of the virion is composed of 60 copies of the 4 capsid proteins, VP1, VP2, VP3, and VP4, that are arranged on an icosahedral surface.…”

“…5c3 and 5d3) with a low-resolution representation of the HRV16 atomic structure ( Fig. 5c1; Oliveria et al, 1993) shows that HRV16 reconstructions indeed show very subtle yet genuine features that distinguish the two HRV serotypes. For example, a ridge of density in HRV16 that crosses the ''canyon'' surrounding the star-shaped pentamers (Fig.…”
