SLAMF1 and measles: To do this, we selected wild-type CDV because (i) a detailed understanding of the molecular interaction of CDV-H with the natural receptors SLAMF1 and nectin-4 exists [18,19] and (ii) the phylogenetic proximity of the CDV envelope to that of MeV was deemed close enough to allow the CDV-H and CDV-F glycoproteins to be incorporated easily into the MeV structure (pseudotyping), generating viable virus that would avoid cross-reactive anti-measles antibodies [13,14,20].
