However, EBOV-GP 2014 was less susceptible than EBOV-GP 1976 to blockade by a third inhibitor, CatL ( Figure 3B ), which inhibits catB and catL activity to similar extents [40] , suggesting subtle differences in the protease dependence of these GPs. HIV-derived particles rapidly lose infectivity when stored at room temperature [41] , and this loss might be due to inactivation of the viral envelope protein. Comparably Inhibited by IFITM Proteins and Neutralizing Antibody KZ52 IFITM proteins 1, 2, and 3 inhibit cellular entry of EBOV [42] and several other viral pathogens [42, 43] and might reduce EBOV amplification in the infected host, raising the question of whether viruses circulating in 2014 are less susceptible to IFITM protein inhibition than those responsible for the 1976 outbreak in Zaire. ./cache/cord-001764-njzyu4mv.txt ./txt/cord-001764-njzyu4mv.txt
