Description

Using CRISPR-Cas9 screen, we identified LRP4 as an entry receptor for Yellow Fever virus. By screening the whole LDLR family members, we further identified LRP1, and VLDLR also act as receptors for Yellow Fever virus. Data were generated by NGS, flow cytometry, qRT-PCR, H&E staining, Bio-Layer Interferometry. There are 5 main Figures and 10 Extended Data Figures. Data were obtained from multiple cell lines including 293T, Vero, HepG2, HAP1, K562 and Raji cells. C57BL/6J mice, AG129 mice and hFGR mice were also used in this project.
