Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Adenoviruses continue to be the focus of research on the fundamental aspects of virus– cell and immune interactions with the expectation that this accumulated knowledge will lead to practical applications in vaccine development and gene therapy. The increasing sophistication and precision of these investigations during the past ~ half decade have uncovered further knowledge of how the structural features of adenovirus facilitate its association with the host cell as well as with immune components.
Topics in this continuing new series include key steps in HAdV–host cell interactions as well as structure-based investigations of virus and virus capsid protein associations with cell receptors and immune molecules. An emphasis will be placed on extending these fundamental research findings to a practical perspective in terms of developing therapeutic modalities.
