I have been dividing up the flaviviruses with the melanocortin receptor they could use:
mcr1 Tick borne encephalitis virus/ hepatitis C (Thrombocytopenia due to red blood cells with mcr1)
mcr2 (ACTH receptor) Zika (placenta, developing brain)
mcr3 West nile (kidneys)
mcr3 and mcr1 Japanese encephalitis
mcr4 Yellow fever (liver)
mcr5 Dengue (immune system T cells)
I am thinking they open the door into cells using this receptor most of the time and the other melacortin receptors less well.

However do all the flaviviruses bind mcr1 weakly?
Mcr1 is at the skin and could be the reason for the flavivirus skin rashes/melanoma link

Red hair has the mutation to mcr1 and it has been long known that they have much higher rates of melanoma which could mean the virus binds these receptors better?
Red heads typically require more anesthetics
mcr1 mutations and pain

What about the joint pain that all flaviviruses can develop?
Joints:
Could the MCR1 help explain the delayed joint pain experienced in dengue?
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/pune/Post-dengue-joint-and-muscle-pain-on-rise/articleshow/44936280.cms
Mcr1 has been looked at concerning joints and osteoarthritis. (so the receptors are there in the joints the question is does the virus infect using them causing the dengue's pain in later stages)

Blindness and blood shot eyes:
the blood shot eyes that are associated with the flaviviruses are caused by inflammation of the ocular
http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/1192122-overview
mrc1 is expressed at the ocular (studies in red heads)
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1180688/
Could the blindness occur when the virus has destroyed too many ocular cells? Does eye sight weaken after flavivirus infections in general?

Prostate cancer seems to be linked to all the flaviviruses too
could this be because the prostate has mcr1?

MCR2 and prostate cancer

(assuming my co-carcinogenesis hypothesis that a carcinogen and a virus together cause most cancers thus explaining the link between melanoma and prostate cancer)

Mcr4 mutations have been linked to obesity
it is then interesting to see that vaccines for yellow fever which might use mcr4 have had a metabolic response

Note that Hep C infections was not found to increase melanoma risk. So is it west nile and the MCR3 receptor?
