Influenza virus hemagglutinin and neuraminidase cytoplasmic tails control particle shape.
The cytoplasmic tails of the influenza virus glycoproteins hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) are highly conserved in sequence for all virus subtypes and it is believed that assembly of this enveloped virus depends on interactions of these domains with cytoplasmic viral components. However, it is possible to rescue altered influenza viruses lacking either the HA or NA cytoplasmic tails. ...
متن کاملProtein Modeling and Docking of Curcurin Against Neuraminidase, Hemagglutinin Proteins of Pandemic Influenza H1N1/2009
A new approach to anti-viral therapy in recent years has been relying on the modeling and docking processes in the quest of novel inhibitors. Curcurin, an ribosome-inactivating protein, from Jatropha curcas Linn. (Euphorbiaceae), a herbal plant that has been used in traditional folk medicine in many tropical countries, was investigated against 2 proteins of Pandemic Influenza H1N1/2009. Althoug...
متن کاملStudy of immunogenicity of recombinant proteins based on hemagglutinin and neuraminidase conservative epitopes of Influenza A virus
BACKGROUND Recombinant hemagglutinin (rHA) and neurominidase (rNA) developed in our investigation are amino acid sequence consensus variants of H1N1 2009 subtype influenza virus strain, also including immunogenic epitopes typical for other influenza virus subtypes (H3N1 and H5N1). Substitutions were made: typical for Russian virus isolates (in HA - S220T, NA - D248N) and in active centers of mo...
متن کاملEffect of hemagglutinin glycosylation on influenza virus susceptibility to neuraminidase inhibitors.
Inhibition of neuraminidase (NA) activity prevents release of progeny virions from influenza-infected cells and removal of neuraminic (sialic) acid moieties from glycans attached to hemagglutinin (HA). Neuraminic acid moieties situated near the HA receptor-binding site can reduce the efficiency of virus binding and decrease viral dependence on NA activity for replication. With the use of revers...
متن کاملNanodisc-incorporated hemagglutinin provides protective immunity against influenza virus infection.
Every year, influenza virus infection causes significant mortality and morbidity in human populations. Although egg-based inactivated viral vaccines are available, their effectiveness depends on the correct prediction of the circulating viral strains and is limited by the time constraint of the manufacturing process. Recombinant subunit vaccines are easier to manufacture with a relatively short...
