Characterization of type 5 adenovirus fiber protein.
Type 5 adenovirus fiber protein was purified and subjected to chemical characterization. Equilibrium sedimentation ultracentrifugation analysis indicated that the intact fiber has a molecular weight of approximately 183,000. Denaturation and chemical analyses implied that the fiber consists of three polypeptide chains, each of about 61,000 mol wt. Mapping of tryptic peptides and electrophoretic...
متن کاملAdenovirus type 5 pseudotyped with adenovirus type 37 fiber uses sialic acid as a cellular receptor.
For purposes of gene therapy, the tropism of adenovirus (Ad) serotype 5 vectors can be altered with fibers derived from alternative serotypes. However, there is currently limited information available on the cellular receptors used by the approximately 51 known Ad serotypes. Recently, alpha(2-->3)-linked sialic acid (2,3-SA) has been implicated as the cellular receptor for wild-type Ad37. Howev...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of an extremely basic protein from adenovirus type 5.
By starch-gel electrophoresis and a staining method that is highly sensitive for argininyl residues, adenovirus type 5 was found to contain two minor basic polypeptides of extreme cathodic mobility in addition to the two known core proteins. The fastest-migrating polypeptide, named mu protein, and the second fastest polypeptide are found in adenovirions and virus-infected KB cells but not in to...
متن کاملTransforming potential of the adenovirus type 5 E4orf3 protein.
Previous observations that the adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) E4orf6 and E4orf3 gene products have redundant effects in viral lytic infection together with the recent findings that E4orf6 possesses transforming potential prompted us to investigate the effect of E4orf3 expression on the transformation of primary rat cells in combination with adenovirus E1 oncogene products. Our results demonstrate for ...
متن کاملBiochemical analysis of adenovirus type 5 DNA-binding protein mutants.
We previously reported the isolation and functional characterization of seven adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) DNA-binding protein (DBP) point mutants (Quinn, C. O., and Kitchingman, G. R. (1986) J. Virol. 60, 653-661). Six of the seven mutants were defective in their ability to help adeno-associated virus replicate its DNA. To determine the level at which the mutations affect this function of the DBP, ...
