Fiber shaft extension in combination with HI loop ligands augments infectivity for CAR-negative tumor targets but does not enhance hepatotropism in vivo
Recent studies demonstrate that the fiber shaft length, which ranges from six β-repeats to 23 β-repeats in human adenoviruses (Ads), influences viral tropism. We have previously shown that artificial extension...
