Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is one of the major causative agents of hand, foot, and mouth disease, a common febrile disease in children; however, EV71 has been also associated with various neurological diseases including fatal cases in large EV71 outbreaks particularly in the Asia Pacific region. Recently we identified human P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) as a cellular receptor for entry and replication of EV71 in leukocytes. PSGL-1 is a sialomucin expressed on the surface of leukocytes, serves as a high affinity counterreceptor for selectins, and mediates leukocyte rolling on the endothelium. The PSGL-1–P-selectin interaction requires sulfation of at least one of three clustered tyrosines and an adjacent O-glycan expressing sialyl Lewis x in an N-terminal region of PSGL-1. To elucidate the molecular basis of the PSGL-1–EV71 interaction, we generated a series of PSGL-1 mutants and identified the post-translational modifications that are critical for binding of PSGL-1 to EV71. We expressed the PSGL-1 mutants in 293T cells and the transfected cells were assayed for their abilities to bind to EV71 by flow cytometry. We found that O-glycosylation on T57, which is critical for PSGL-1–selectin interaction, is not necessary for PSGL-1 binding to EV71. On the other hand, site-directed mutagenesis at one or more potential tyrosine sulfation sites in the N-terminal region of PSGL-1 significantly impaired PSGL-1 binding to EV71. Furthermore, an inhibitor of sulfation, sodium chlorate, blocked the PSGL-1–EV71 interaction and inhibited PSGL-1-mediated viral replication of EV71 in Jurkat T cells in a dose-dependent manner. Thus, the results presented in this study reveal that tyrosine sulfation, but not O-glycosylation, in the N-terminal region of PSGL-1 may facilitate virus entry and replication of EV71 in leukocytes. Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a major causative agent of hand, foot, and mouth disease and a diverse array of neurological diseases, including fatal encephalitis, in children. EV71 has increasingly caused large outbreaks of hand, foot, and mouth disease particularly in the Asia-Pacific region. Recently, we identified human P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) as a functional receptor for EV71. PSGL-1 on immune cells is a key molecule involved in early inflammatory events and the PSGL-1–selectin interaction is regulated by post-translational modifications of PSGL-1. Here, we found that a post-translational modification, tyrosine sulfation, at the N-terminal region of PSGL-1 is critical for its binding to EV71 and subsequent viral replication in lymphocytes. Important roles for tyrosine sulfation in protein-protein interactions have been widely accepted; however, involvement of tyrosine sulfation of the receptor in the virus-receptor interaction has been reported only for HIV-1. Therefore, this is the second and unique example of the involvement of tyrosine sulfation in specific virus-receptor interactions. Our results shed new light on biological roles for tyrosine-sulfated proteins in cell tropism and the pathogenesis of EV71.
