We stained cell lines with lectins that have been used to recognize the following three different epitopes: (i) WGA recognizes all sialic acids, (ii) MAA recognizes α2,3 sialic acid, and (iii) SNA recognizes α2,6 sialic acid. In this report, we demonstrate that AAV1 and AAV6 use both α2,3 and α2,6 N-linked sialic acids for binding and infection. To analyze i...
