Abstract
The physiological and cell biological aspects of the CoxsackieAdenovirus Receptor (CAR) is discussed in this review. The receptor obviously recognizes the group C adenoviruses in vivo, but also fibers from other groups except group B in vitro. The latter viruses seem to utilize a different receptor. The receptor accumulates at, or close to, the tight junction in polarized epithelial cells and probably functions as a cell-cell adhesion molecule. The cytoplasmic tail of the receptor is not required for virus attachment and uptake. Although there is a correlation between CAR and uptake of adenoviruses in several human tumor cells, evidence of an absolute requirement for integrins has not been forthcoming. The implication of these findings for adenovirus gene therapy is discussed.
