Putative host cell receptor for fowl adenovirus detected in gizzard

J Vet Med Sci. 2007 Nov;69(11):1203-5. doi: 10.1292/jvms.69.1203.

Abstract

This work was done to identify a fowl adenovirus (FAV) binding protein in the gizzard, a known target organ for certain strains of FAV serotype 1. By using a virus overlay protein binding assay (VOPBA), a putative FAV binding protein of approximately 200 kDa expressed in the gizzard was detected.
