Human adenoviruses cause a significant number of acute respiratory, enteric and ocular
infections, however they have also served as useful model systems for uncovering …

The collective attributes of adenoviruses (Ads), including ease of accomplishing replication
deficiency, readily achievable high titers, encoding of large expression cassettes, efficiency …

While X‐ray crystallography provides atomic resolution structures of proteins and small
viruses, electron microscopy provides complementary structural information on the …

Human adenoviruses are responsible for respiratory, gastro-enteric and ocular infections
and can serve as gene therapy vectors. They form icosahedral particles with 240 copies of …

The three-dimensional structure of adenovirus has been determined by image
reconstruction from cryoelectron micrographs. Comparison with the high resolution X-ray …

The adenovirus penton, a noncovalent complex of the pentameric penton base and trimeric
fiber proteins, comprises the vertices of the adenovirus capsid and contains all necessary …

The oligomerization state of the rabies virus envelope glycoprotein (G protein) was
determined using electron microscopy and sedimentation analysis of detergent solubilized …

Background: Adenoviral infection begins with the binding of virion to the surface of host
cells. Specific attachment is achieved through interactions between host-cell receptors and …

The adenovirus fiber protein is used for attachment of the virus to a specific receptor on the
cell surface. Structurally, the protein consists of a long, thin shaft that protrudes from the …

Reovirus attaches to cellular receptors with the σ1 protein, a fiber‐like molecule protruding
from the 12 vertices of the icosahedral virion. The crystal structure of a receptor‐binding …
