Molecular classification
Viral protein, Glycoprotein, Surface protein
01

Overview

The Sudan virus glycoprotein (SUDV GP) is the sole surface protein of the Sudan ebolavirus (SUDV), essential for viral entry. It mediates attachment and membrane fusion by interacting with cell-surface lectins (DC-SIGN, L-SIGN) and the endosomal receptor Niemann-Pick C1 (NPC1). Structural features include a mucin-like domain that shields epitopes and a critical disulfide bond. A polymorphism at residue 95 (Q/K) affects stability. SUDV GP is a major target for neutralizing antibodies but presents challenges due to structural variability. It is crucial for viral infectivity and species specificity.
