This entry includes the glycoprotein G from Rhabdoviruses, such as rabies virus (RABV), Mokola virus (MOKV) and European bat lyssavirus 1 (EBLV) [1-5], which attaches the virus to host cellular receptor, and induces endocytosis of the virion. It forms the glycoprotein spike that is made up of a trimer of G proteins. Each protomer of the trimer is composed of three domains: a membrane-distal pleckstrin homology domain (PH), a membrane-proximal fusion domain (FD) and a laterally positioned central domain (CD) [2-5]. This entry represents the elongated FD (also known as domain IV).
