Antigenic variation in influenza virus.
/3-c-p region with a cross-over bust be that of phydroxybenzoate hydroxylase. The only conventional nucleotide-binding site is occupied by FAD, and NADP+ binds to the enzyme together with FAD for turnover. It may be significant that for the two observed variant coenzyme sites, those of hexokinase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, the details of coenzyme binding are said to be ‘different’ (S...
متن کاملInfluenza A Virus Hemagglutinin Antibody Escape Promotes Neuraminidase Antigenic Variation and Drug Resistance
Drugs inhibiting the influenza A virus (IAV) neuraminidase (NA) are the cornerstone of anti-IAV chemotherapy and prophylaxis in man. Drug-resistant mutations in NA arise frequently in human isolates, limiting the therapeutic application of NA inhibitors. Here, we show that antibody-driven antigenic variation in one domain of the H1 hemagglutinin Sa site leads to compensatory mutations in NA, re...
متن کاملInfluenza Virus Neuraminidase: Structure and Function
The structure of the influenza virus neuraminidases, the spatial organization of their active site, the mechanism of carbohydrate chains desialylation by neuraminidase, and its role in the influenza virus function at different stages of the viral infectious cycle are considered in this review. Data on the neuraminidase substrate specificity and different approaches in studying the activity of t...
متن کاملInfluenza virus neuraminidase.
Antiserum specific for influenza A2 neuraminidase was produced by immunization of rabbits with the purified enzyme which had been isolated by electrophoresis from the proteins of a detergent-disrupted AoA2 influenza virus recombinant [X-7 (Fl)]. This recombinant contained hemagglutinin of the Ao subtype and A2 neuraminidase. Antiserum to the isolated A2 neuraminidase did not react in any of fou...
متن کاملAntigenic Variation of the Haemagglutinin Gene of the Influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 Virus Circulating in Shiraz, February-April 2013
Background: A new pandemic influenza A (H1N1) emerged in April 2009, causing considerable morbidity and mortality. Since mutations in the haemagglutinin (HA) may influence the antigenicity and pathogenicity of the virus, continued epidemiological and molecular characterization for the effective control of pandemic flu and developing of more appropriate vaccine is crucial. Objective: To monitor ...
