| genomic mapping and sequence analysis of the fowl adenovirus serotype 10 hexon gene. | the gene for the major capsid protein (hexon) of fowl adenovirus serotype 10 (fav-10) has been identified by the use of the expression vector pgex and rabbit polyclonal antisera raised against fav-10. the nucleotide sequence of the entire hexon gene has been determined. sequence analysis revealed an open reading frame of 2808 bp coding for a putative polypeptide 936 amino acids long with a molecular mass of 105.5 kda. the translation initiation codon has a local sequence which conforms with the ... | 1995 | 7595364 |
| study on the children of kaohsiung with acute viral infection of lower respiratory tract by direct immunofluorescence assay. | this study retrospectively reviewed those pediatric patients of acute lower respiratory tract infection with positive virus identification by direct immunofluorescence assay (direct if) from jan, 1992 to dec, 1993. one hundred and eighteen patients with 133 positive direct if results (107 cases with single virus identified, and 11 cases with more than one) were included. the sex ratio was 1.6:1 with males predominant; age, 22.1 (1 approximately 154.8) (months); duration of admission, 5.7 (1 appr ... | 1994 | 7983692 |
| human adenovirus 52 uses sialic acid-containing glycoproteins and the coxsackie and adenovirus receptor for binding to target cells. | most adenoviruses attach to host cells by means of the protruding fiber protein that binds to host cells via the coxsackievirus and adenovirus receptor (car) protein. human adenovirus type 52 (hadv-52) is one of only three gastroenteritis-causing hadvs that are equipped with two different fiber proteins, one long and one short. here we show, by means of virion-cell binding and infection experiments, that hadv-52 can also attach to host cells via car, but most of the binding depends on sialylated ... | 2015 | 25674795 |
