Coughlan, L. et al. Retargeting adenovirus serotype 48 fiber knob domain by peptide incorporation.
Wang, H. et al. Identification of CD46 binding sites within the adenovirus serotype 35 fiber knob.
For equilibrium binding analysis, the HAdV-D26K and HAdV-B3K fiber knob proteins were purified and concentrated to 367 and 3 μM respectively.
In the latter, an RGD peptide, the binding site for αvβ3 and αvβ5 integrin, was introduced in the fiber knob enabling adenovirus receptor-independent viral infection.
We reduced this leakage through genetic modification of the vector capsid to display RGD and poly-lysine motifs in the fiber knob.
This is normally achieved through either engineering of the viral fiber knob or the use of bispecific adaptors that display both adenovirus and tumour antigen receptors.
