Abstract
⺠fAPN and fDC-SIGN are receptors for FIPV in cell lines. ⺠The role of these receptors in infection of target cells was studied for both serotypes of FIPV. ⺠FIPV I infection of monocytes depends on fDC-SIGN. ⺠Most FIPV I particles already interact with fDC-SIGN at the plasma membrane. ⺠For FIPV II, both fAPN and fDC-SIGN are involved in infection but only fAPN at the plasma membrane.
