Abstract Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a significant health burden and leading cause of virus-induced cancers. The mechanisms of HPV receptor binding and host entry are not completely understood, although it is known that heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) mediate entry. HPV16 quasivirus, composed of L1 and L2 capsid proteins with a packaged cottontail rabbit papillomavirus genome was incubated with heparin. The complex was vitrified, and data were collected for cryoEM single particle analysis.
