DESCRIPTION
Chapter 4: Replication Slide 3/25© Academic Press, Multiple Receptors (1) In some cases, interactions with more than one protein are required for virus entry. Neither protein alone is a functional receptor - both are required to act in concert, e.g. adenovirus attachment. This is a two stage process involving an initial interaction of the virion fibre protein with a range of cellular receptors, which include the MHC class I molecule & the coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR). Another virion protein, the penton base, then binds to the integrin family of cell surface heterodimers allowing internalization of the particle via receptor-mediated endocytosis. Most cells express primary receptors for the adenovirus fibre coat protein; however, the internalization step is more selective, giving rise to a degree of cell selection.TRANSCRIPT
