Envelope glycoproteins play a central role in several stages of the retroviral life cycle. They bear the domains responsible for binding cell surface receptors, and they initiate the fusion between the viral envelope and the host cell membrane. Retroviral envelope glycoproteins also induce cell fusion, and they may th

Most viruses express proteins that ensure efficient expression of viral genes. The E1a protein of adenovirus is essential for the efficient transcription of early adenoviral genes. Three regions of E1a are conserved among different adenovirus E1a proteins. Region 3 alone is sufficient to induce transcription of early
