Abstract excerpt
Poliovirus initiates infection by binding to its cell receptor and undergoing a receptor-mediated conformational alteration. To identify capsid residues that control these interactions, we have isolated and characterized poliovirus mutants that are resistant to neutralization by a soluble form of...
