CryoEM structure of adenovirus type 3 fibre with desmoglein 2 shows an unusual mode of receptor engagement
Attachment of human adenovirus (HAd) to the host cell is a critical step of infection. Initial attachment occurs via the adenoviral fibre knob protein and a cellular receptor. Here we report the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of a
