The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) and the neuronal cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) are both neuronal transmembrane proteins that were suggested to act as receptors for RABV. However, their exact role in RABV infection is not clearly understood, as neither was found imperative for RABV infection (Lafon, 2005; Tuffereau et al., 2007). In addition, RABV binds… Continue reading The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) and the neuronal cell adhesion molecule
