Characteristics of an Endonuclease Associated with Adenovirus Types 2 and 12
… were assayed for endonuclease activity. Only the penton, composed of a penton base and a fiber, cleaves the DNA substrate. The fiber does not compete with the penton for the substrate. The endonuclease was specifically inactivated by treating the penton with trypsin and group-specific antiserum. …

The use of transgenic tobacco as a production and delivery system for a vaccine against hemorrhagic enteritis virus of turkeys
… Data indicates that the capsid proteins (fiber, penton base, hexon) of HEV are capable of stimulating protective antibodies against an HEV challenge. Using tobacco as a model, we sought to determine if a plant could be used to synthesize the HEV fiber protein and produce sufficient antigen to …

Role of Microtubule Motor Proteins in Adenoviral Infections
… capsid mainly consists of three proteins (fiber, penton base, hexon) that form a rigid shell to protect the viral genome outside of host cells. However, they are able to orchestrate a precise disassembly program initiated once the next susceptible cell is reached, leading to step-wise virus entry, …
