Notably, proteolytic processing of Env depends on correct N-linked glycosylation as aberrant carbohydrate side chains may result in subcellular mistrafficking or sequestration of Env. 49 Most likely, HIV-1 takes advantage of the redundancy of several proprotein convertases recognising the polybasic cleavage motif in Env. Furin, PCSK5, PCSK6 and PCSK7 have all been shown to cleave gp160 in cells, albeit with different efficiencies. 59, 60 Notably, a subset of H9N2 lowly pathogenic avian influenza A virus strains also harbour R-S-K-R↓ or R-S-R-R↓ sites that are not only cleaved by trypsin-like proteases, such as TMPRSS2 or HAT, but also by PCSKs. 61 However, their cleavage is only efficient in the presence of very high amounts of furin or upon mutation of a glycosylation site in HA.	./cache/cord-003817-k3m72uxw.txt	./txt/cord-003817-k3m72uxw.txt
