Structural and functional basis of VLDLR receptor usage by Eastern equine encephalitis virus
SUMMARY The very low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) is comprised of eight LDLR type A (LA) domains and supports entry of distantly related Eastern equine encephalitis (EEEV) and Semliki Forest (SFV) alphaviruses. Here, by resolving multiple cryo-electron microscopy structures of EEEV-VLDLR complexes and performing mutagenesis and functional studies, we show that EEEV uses multiple sites (E1/E2 cleft and E2 A domain) to engage different LA domains simultaneously. However, no single LA domain is necessary or sufficient to support efficient EEEV infection, highlighting complexity in domain usage. Whereas all EEEV strains show conservation of two VLDLR binding sites, the EEEV PE–6 strain and other EEE complex members feature a single amino acid substitution that mediates binding of LA domains to an additional site on the E2 B domain. These structural and functional analyses informed the design of a minimal VLDLR decoy receptor that neutralizes EEEV infection and protects mice from lethal challenge..
