Cells expressing herpes simplex virus (HSV) gD can be resistant to HSV entry as a result of gD-mediated interference. HSV strains differ in sensitivity to this interference, which blocks viral penetration but not binding. Previous studies have shown that mutations or variations in virion-associated gD can confer resistance to gD-mediated interference. Here we show that HSV-1 mutants selected for enhanced ability to bind and penetrate in the presence of inhibitory concentrations of heparin were partially resistant to gD-mediated interference. The resistance was largely due to the presence of two mutations: one in gC (the major heparin-binding glycoprotein) resulting in the absence of gC expression and the other in gK resulting in a syncytial phenotype. The results imply that heparin selected for mutants with altered postbinding requirements for entry. Resistance to gD-mediated interference conferred by mutations affecting gC and gK has not been previously described.
