GGCX promotes Eurasian avian-like H1N1 swine influenza virus adaption to interspecies receptor binding by Jiahui Zou, Meijun Jiang, Rong Xiao, Huimin Sun, Hailong Liu, Thomas Peacock, Shaoyu Tu, Tong Chen, Jinli Guo, Yaxin Zhao, Wendy Barclay, Shengsong Xie, Hongbo Zhou

“…Furthermore, GGCX is revealed to be the determinant of the D225E substitution of EA H1N1 SIV, and GGCX-medicated carboxylation modification of HA 225E contributes to the receptor binding adaption of EA H1N1 SIV to the α-2,6 SA receptor. Taken together, our CRISPR screen has elucidated a novel function of GGCX in the support of EA H1N1 SIV adaption for binding to α-2,6 SA receptor. …”
