Initial binding to target cell probably involves interaction of E(rns) with glycosaminoglycans. E1 and/or E2 are responsible of cell attachment with CD46 and subsequent fusion after internalization of the virion by endocytosis (By similarity). Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-168 from Bovine viral diarrhea virus Genome polyprotein, fused to 10X His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E.coli.
