ABSTRACT The large family of human rhinoviruses, the main causative agents of the common cold, is divided into the major and the minor group based on receptor specificity. Major group viruses attach to intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, whereas minor group viruses use low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR) for cell entry. During early attempts aimed at isolating the minor group receptor, we discovered that a protein with virus binding activity was released from HeLa cells upon incubation with buffer at 37°C (F. Hofer, B. Berger, M. Gruenberger, H. Machat, R. Dernick, U. Tessmer, E. Kuechler, and D. Blaas, J. Gen. Virol. 73:627–632, 1992). In light of the recent discovery of several new members of the LDLR family, we reinvestigated the nature of this protein and present evidence for its being derived from the human very-low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR). A soluble VLDLR fragment encompassing the eight complement type repeats and representing the N-terminal part of the receptor was then expressed in the baculovirus system; both the shed protein and the recombinant soluble VLDLR bind minor group viruses and inhibit viral infection of HeLa cells in a concentration-dependent manner.
