Med. 18:961-966(2012). CC -!- FUNCTION: The heterodimer glycoprotein H-glycoprotein L is required for CC the fusion of viral and plasma membranes leading to virus entry into CC the host cell. Acts as a functional inhibitor of gH and maintains gH in CC an inhibited form. Upon binding to host integrins, gL dissociates from CC gH leading to activation of the viral fusion glycoproteins gB and gH. CC Targets heparan sulfate proteoglycans of the syndecan family as well as CC host EPHA2 to promote viral entry. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04034, CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:11932406, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18945775, CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:22635007}. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with glycoprotein H (gH); this interaction is CC necessary for the correct processing and cell surface expression of gH. CC The heterodimer gH/gL seems to interact with gB trimers during fusion. CC When in complex with gH, interacts with host EPHA2; this interaction CC triggers EPHA2 phosphorylation and endocytosis, allowing virus entry. CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04034, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18945775, CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:22635007}. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Virion membrane {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_04034}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_04034}; Extracellular side {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04034}. CC Host cell membrane {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04034}; Peripheral CC membrane protein {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04034}; Extracellular side CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04034}. Host Golgi apparatus, host trans- CC Golgi network {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04034}. Note=gL associates CC with the extravirion surface through its binding to gH. During virion CC morphogenesis, this protein probably accumulates in the host trans- CC Golgi where secondary envelopment occurs. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- CC Rule:MF_04034}. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the herpesviridae glycoprotein L family. CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_04034}.
