Western blot - Anti-HSV1 gC Envelope Protein antibody [3G9] (AB6509)

Western blot analysis of Vero cells mock-infected or infected with KOS at a multiplicity of infection of 10 for 1, 3, 6 and 9 hours.

HSV1 gC Envelope Protein was detected using ab6509, at 1/1000 dilution. An HRP-conjugated sheep-anti-mouse IgG (1/20000) was used as the secondary antibody.

Supplementary information

The HSV1 gC envelope protein also known as glycoprotein C or gC-1 is a component of the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV1). This protein plays an important mechanical role in virus-host interactions. Glycoprotein C has a molecular mass of approximately 120 kDa and primarily expresses on the surface of the HSV1 virion envelope. It participates in viral attachment and penetration by binding to the host cell's heparan sulfate proteoglycans facilitating the initial stage of viral infection.
Biological function summary

The gC protein contributes to immune evasion and viral dissemination within the host. It participates in a complex with other viral envelope proteins to enhance the infectivity and stability of the viral particle. By interfering with the host's complement system gC aids the virus in evading immune recognition and destruction allowing prolongation of infection. It further modulates the interaction with immune cells impacting the body's ability to mount an effective immune response.

Pathways

The HSV1 gC envelope protein prominently functions within the viral entry and immune evasion pathways. It associates with other glycoproteins such as gB and gD in the viral envelope to mediate virus entry into host cells. HSV1 gC's function also intersects with complement regulatory proteins like factor H which the virus exploits to resist complement-mediated lysis. These pathways allow the virus to efficiently enter host cells and persist by avoiding immune neutralization.

HSV1 gC envelope protein links most notably to herpes simplex labialis commonly known as cold sores and herpes keratitis which affects the cornea. The gC protein contributes to pathogenesis by aiding viral spread and persistence in neural tissues leading to recurrent infections. It interacts with immune-related proteins such as complement components in the host exacerbating tissue inflammation and lesion formation during herpes simplex virus reactivation.

Target data

Major attachment protein that mediates binding of the virus to cell surface heparan sulfate or chondroitin sulfate. Also plays several roles in host immune evasion by inhibiting the host complement cascade activation, and by providing a shield against neutralizing antibodies that interfere with gB-gD, gB-gH/gL or gD-gH/gL interactions (By similarity).
