Glycan-mediated enhancement of reovirus receptor binding

The reovirus outercapsid protein σ1 binds to α-linked sialic acid and junctional adhesion molecule A (JAM-A) for virus entry. Here, combining atomic force microscopy and confocal microscopy, the authors provide insights into the dynamics of these interactions at the single-virion level in living cel...
