The role of glycosaminoglycans in binding of herpes simplex virus type 1 to mammalian cells

Binding of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) to the cell surfaces initially requires interactions between viral glycoproteins embedded in the viral envelope and cell surface glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). In this work, mutant cells derived from Ltk⁻ murine fibroblasts and devoid of the cell surfac...
