Function

The heterodimer glycoprotein H-glycoprotein L is required for the fusion of viral and plasma membranes leading to virus entry into the host cell. Following initial binding to host receptor, membrane fusion is mediated by the fusion machinery composed of gB and the heterodimer gH/gL. May also be involved in the fusion between the virion envelope and the outer nuclear membrane during virion morphogenesis.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Virion membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein); Host cell membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein); Host endosome membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein)

Protein Biology

Function

The heterodimer glycoprotein H-glycoprotein L is required for the fusion of viral and plasma membranes leading to virus entry into the host cell. Following initial binding to host receptor, membrane fusion is mediated by the fusion machinery composed of gB and the heterodimer gH/gL. May also be involved in the fusion between the virion envelope and the outer nuclear membrane during virion morphogenesis (By similarity). In human cytomegalovirus, forms two distinct complexes to mediate viral entry, a trimer and a pentamer at the surface of the virion envelope. The gH-gL-gO trimer is required for infection in fibroblasts by interacting with host PDGFRA, and in glioblastoma cells by interacting with host EPHA2. The gH-gL-UL128-UL130-UL131A pentamer is essential for viral entry in epithelial, endothelial and myeloid cells via interaction with host NRP2 (By similarity)

Subcellular Location

Virion membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein); Host cell membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein); Host endosome membrane (Single-pass type I membrane protein)

Subunit

Interacts with glycoprotein L (gL); this interaction is necessary for the correct processing and cell surface expression of gH. The heterodimer gH/gL seems to interact with gB trimers during fusion (By similarity). Forms the envelope pentamer complex (PC) composed of gH, gL, UL128, UL130, and UL131A. The pentamer interacts with host NRP2. Forms the envelope trimer complex composed of gH, gL, and gO (PubMed:9733861). The trimer interacts with host PDGFRA (By similarity). The trimer also interacts with host EPHA2 (By similarity). Interacts with UL116 (By similarity)
