Erythrocyte P antigen: cellular receptor for B19 parvovirus

TL;DR: The pathogenic human parvovirus B19 replicates only in erythroid progenitor cells and was shown to bind to blood-group P antigen, as measured by hemagglutination, which has implications for understanding the pathogenesis of parVovirus infections and for the use ofParvoviruses in gene therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Parvovirus B19

TL;DR: Parvovirus B19 was discovered in 1974 and is the only member of the family Parvoviridae known to be pathogenic in humans, anddiagnosis is primarily based on detection of specific antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or detection of viral DNA by dot blot hybridization or PCR.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adeno-Associated Virus Serotype 4 (AAV4) and AAV5 Both Require Sialic Acid Binding for Hemagglutination and Efficient Transduction but Differ in Sialic Acid Linkage Specificity

TL;DR: The results suggest that AAV4 and AAV5 require different sialic acid-containing glycoproteins for binding and transduction of target cells and they further explain the different tropism of AAV 4 and A AV5.
