Fusion glycoprotein F0

Molecular classification
Fusion protein, Glycoprotein, Viral protein, Type I integral membrane protein
01

Overview

The fusion glycoprotein F0 is a viral surface protein responsible for mediating the entry of viruses, such as Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) and Nipah virus (NiV), into host cells. It is synthesized as an inactive precursor that is subsequently cleaved into F1 and F2 subunits, forming a trimeric complex. This complex undergoes conformational changes to facilitate fusion between the viral envelope and the host cell membrane. It is a major target for neutralizing antibodies and vaccine development.
