However, the high sequence divergence in the
fiber protein (Table 2), as well as the absence of
fiber motifs conserved among
adenoviruses that bind CAR [36], [37](coxsackievirus -
adenovirus receptor) or CD46 [38], [39], [40](data not shown), suggest that neither of these two
human adenoviral receptors may be the attachment receptor for TMAdV.
Characterization of the translational defect to
fiber synthesis in monkey cells abortively infected with
human adenovirus: Role of ancillary leaders
Increased permissivity of monkey cells to
human adenovirus multiplication is affected by culturing conditions and correlates with both synthesis of virion
fiber protein and altered splicing of its mRNA
