Binding of adenoviral fiber knob to the coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor is crucial for transduction of fetal muscle.

Abstract excerpt

Adenoviral (Ad) infection involves attachment mediated by the Ad fiber protein binding to the coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) of a target cell and internalization facilitated by the interaction of the Ad penton base protein with alpha(v) integrins. To understand the relative importance of the Ad binding and internalization steps for the transduction of fetal skeletal muscle, we used a panel of...
