Finally, we have provided evidence that the intracellular signaling motifbut not the IgG binding motifof the FcγR is the key molecular determinant for triggering ADE of SARS-CoVpp. Our findings conclusively demonstrate that anti-spike serum promotes internalization of SARS-CoV by human macrophages. All the endodomain-truncated constructs (FcγRIIA-H.ΔIC, FcγRIIA-R.ΔIC and FcγRIIB.ΔIC, corresponding to constructs 2, 6, 11 respectively) were not susceptible to ADE of infection, indicating that binding of anti-Spike IgG-SARS-CoVpp immune complexes was not sufficient to mediate entry and that the signaling-competent endodomain was required. ./cache/cord-325172-a8ntxnmm.txt ./txt/cord-325172-a8ntxnmm.txt
