Abstract

The surface of enveloped viruses contains viral envelope glycoproteins, an important structural component facilitating virus attachment and entry while also acting as targets for the host adaptive immune system. In this study, we show that expression of GBP5 in virus-producer cells alters the glycosylation, cell-surface expression, and virion incorporation of viral glycoproteins across several virus families. This research provides novel insights into the broad impact of the host cell anti-viral factor GBP5 on protein glycosylation and trafficking.
