Illustration of an adenovirus particle. Adenoviruses are the largest viruses not to have a protein coat covering their capsid. The capsid is icosahedral, having 20 triangular faces made up of regular arrangements of hexon capsomeres. Penton capsomeres make up the 12 vertices, with a fibre and knob structure protruding from each. Inside the capsid is the genetic material (DNA, not shown). Adenoviruses are used as vectors to deliver therapeutic genes and vaccines to the human body.
