FIG. 4.
The surface of CVB3 around a fivefold vertex, with VP1, VP,2, and VP3 in blue, green, and red, respectively. One DAF and one CAR receptor are shown as Cα backbones in yellow and cyan, respectively, where they would be bound to the viral surface. The DAF contact area is shown in white in each of the five protomers. CAR is seen to clash with SCR3 of DAF if both receptors were to bind at the same time to the same icosahedral asymmetric unit of the virus. The stereo figure was produced using Chimera (34, 46).
