G451R sE2 with hCD81 LEL we compared mutant and wt sE2 <strong>in</strong>teractions<br />

with a panel <strong>of</strong> CD81 variants with substitutions at am<strong>in</strong>o acid residues<br />

reported to be critical for <strong>in</strong>teract<strong>in</strong>g with E2 (84). All mutations abrogated<br />

CD81 <strong>in</strong>teraction with both wt and G451R sE2 prote<strong>in</strong>s, suggest<strong>in</strong>g that the<br />

G451R mutation does not alter the nature <strong>of</strong> the E2-CD81 <strong>in</strong>teraction (Figure<br />

5-4B).
