Mode of initiation of cell infection with sludge-associated poliovirus

Mode of initiation of cell infection with sludge-associated poliovirus

R L Ward et al. Appl Environ Microbiol. 1979 Aug.

Abstract

Association with sludge solids did not allow poliovirus to enter cells other than through the normal receptor-mediated route. This implies that the infectivities of sludge-encapsulated virions are masked until their exposure permits binding to cell surface receptors.
