An Intrinsically Disordered Region of the Adenovirus Capsid Is Implicated in Neutralization by Human Alpha Defensin 5
Human α-defensins are proteins of the innate immune system that suppress viral and bacterial infections by multiple mechanisms including membrane disruption. For viruses that lack envelopes, such as human adenovirus (HAdV), other, less well defined, mechanisms must be involved. A previous structural...
