integrins, and sialic acid on target cells. Initial interactions of
subgenus D adenoviruses with target cells have until now been poorly
characterized. Here, we demonstrate that adenovirus type 8 (Ad8),
Ad19a, and Ad37 use sialic acid as a functional cellular
receptor, whereas the Ad9 and Ad19 prototypes do not.
