Introduction
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a picornavirus
with pandemic potential. EV71 infection is
a major causative agent of hand, foot, and
mouth disease (HFMD), typically a mild,
self-limiting disease that can result in
severe neurological symptoms and
significant pediatric mortality. Identification
of viral receptors is crucial to
understanding the infection mechanism of
EV71 in the search for potential antiviral
targets. We performed a single-particle
cyro-electron microscopy reconstruction of
EV71 with bound P-selectin glycoprotein
ligand-1 (psgl-1), previously identified as a
functional receptor for EV71, to indicate
candidate viral binding sites for the psgl-1
cellular receptor.
Methods
Figure 5: Difference map analysis of EV71+psgl-1 compared with EV71 native particle
Left: EV71+psgl-1 reconstruction, 1,932 particles, 15.89 A resolution
Center: Native EV71 particle (no bound psgl-1) at approximately 10 A
resolution.

EV71 with bound psgl-1
Right: Difference map displaying density differences between psgl-1-bound
and psgl-1-unbound virus reconstructions. Significant density is apparent
surrounding the icosahedral five-fold and three-fold vertices.
Figure 7: Native EV71/EV71+psgl-1 difference map superimposed with BEV polyprotein
EV71 VP1-145 (necessary for EV71 infectivity in psgl-1
expressing cell lines) correlated with BEV VP1-131
(shown as red spheres), shown in close proximity to
regions of high difference density near the five-fold vertex
indicating a potential binding site for psgl-1.
