Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel Protein 2 (VDAC2) and Receptor of Activated Protein C Kinase 1 (RACK1) Act as Functional Receptors for Lymphocystis Disease Virus Infection.

ABSTRACT: In previous research, a 27.8-kDa protein in flounder Paralichthys olivaceus gill (FG) cells was identified as a putative cellular receptor (27.8R), which mediated lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV) infection via interaction with a 32-kDa viral attachment protein (VAP) of LCDV, and monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against 27.8R and 32-kDa VAP were developed. In this study, the 27.8R was identified as voltage-dependent anion channel protein 2 (VDAC2) and receptor of activated protein C kinase 1 (RACK1) of flounder. Recombinant VDAC2 (rVDAC2) and RACK1 (rRACK1) were obtained by prokaryotic expression, and rabbit anti-VDAC2/RACK1 polyclonal antibodies were prepared. The rVDAC2, rRACK1, and 27.8-kDa proteins in FG cells were recognized by anti-27.8R MAbs and anti-VDAC2/RACK1 polyclonal antibodies si
