Biological function summary
The glycoprotein participates in the fusion process between the viral envelope and host cell membrane. This process requires a conformational change in the glycoprotein structure triggering the fusion of the viral and cellular membranes. RVG forms homotrimers becoming part of a functional complex necessary for viral infectivity. It acts as the major antigenic determinant that elicits an immune response in the host making it a target for neutralizing antibodies.
Pathways
RVG plays a significant role in the viral replication and propagation pathway. Its interaction with cell receptors like the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) facilitates viral attachment and entry into nerve cells. This interaction contributes to the virus's neurotropic characteristics. Glycoprotein interaction with non-classical major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I proteins can modulate host immune response pathways illustrating its diverse involvement in cell signaling.

General info
Function
Attaches the virus to host cellular receptor, inducing endocytosis of the virion. In the endosome, the acidic pH induces conformational changes in the glycoprotein trimer, which trigger fusion between virus and cell membrane. There is convincing in vitro evidence that the muscular form of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), the neuronal cell adhesion molecule (NCAM), and the p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) bind glycoprotein and thereby facilitate rabies virus entry into cells.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the lyssavirus glycoprotein family.
Post-translational modifications
Glycosylated and palmitoylated by host. Glycosylation is crucial for glycoprotein export at the cell surface.
