The heterodimer gE/gI serves as a receptor for the Fc part of human IgG. Dissociation of gE/gI from IgG occurs at acidic pH. May thus be involved in anti-HSV antibodies bipolar bridging, followed by intracellular endocytosis and degradation, thereby interfering with host Ig-mediated immune responses.
