Specifications
Target Information
The rift valley fever virus (RVFV) glycoprotein C, also known as Gn, is a key component of the virus's envelope and plays a central role in the infection process. As one of the two major surface glycoproteins of RVFV, glycoprotein C is involved in receptor binding and fusion with the host cell membrane, enabling the virus to enter and initiate infection. Glycoprotein C is a prime target for vaccine development and antiviral therapies due to its critical role in the virus's lifecycle. It is immunogenic, meaning it can elicit a strong immune response, making it a candidate for the design of subunit vaccines. Additionally, understanding the structure and function of glycoprotein C can aid in the development of monoclonal antibodies or small molecules that can inhibit its activity, thereby preventing viral entry into host cells.
