Avian influenza virus hemagglutinins H2, H4, H8, and H14 support a highly pathogenic phenotype.
High-pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) evolve from low-pathogenic precursors specifying the HA serotypes H5 or H7 by acquisition of a polybasic HA cleavage site. As the reason for this serotype restriction has remained unclear, we aimed to distinguish between compatibility of a polybasic cleavage site with H5/H7 HA only and unique predisposition of these two serotypes for insertion mu...
متن کاملContemporary Avian Influenza A Virus Subtype H1, H6, H7, H10, and H15 Hemagglutinin Genes Encode a Mammalian Virulence Factor Similar to the 1918 Pandemic Virus H1 Hemagglutinin
UNLABELLED Zoonotic avian influenza virus infections may lead to epidemics or pandemics. The 1918 pandemic influenza virus has an avian influenza virus-like genome, and its H1 hemagglutinin was identified as a key mammalian virulence factor. A chimeric 1918 virus expressing a contemporary avian H1 hemagglutinin, however, displayed murine pathogenicity indistinguishable from that of the 1918 vir...
متن کاملEvidence of Infection with H4 and H11 Avian Influenza Viruses among Lebanese Chicken Growers
Human infections with H5, H7, and H9 avian influenza viruses are well documented. Exposure to poultry is the most important risk factor for humans becoming infected with these viruses. Data on human infection with other low pathogenicity avian influenza viruses is sparse but suggests that such infections may occur. Lebanon is a Mediterranean country lying under two major migratory birds flyways...
متن کاملH5 avian and H9 swine influenza virus haemagglutinin structures: possible origin of influenza subtypes.
There are 15 subtypes of influenza A virus (H1-H15), all of which are found in avian species. Three caused pandemics in the last century: H1 in 1918 (and 1977), H2 in 1957 and H3 in 1968. In 1997, an H5 avian virus and in 1999 an H9 virus caused outbreaks of respiratory disease in Hong Kong. We have determined the three-dimensional structures of the haemagglutinins (HAs) from H5 avian and H9 sw...
متن کاملdetection and molecular characterization of the avian influenza a (h7n9) virus in eastern china in 2013
conclusions our results demonstrated a novel h7n9 virus in chickens in taizhou city in 2013 that may pose a potential risk to public health. results of 150 samples tested, 7 were detected to be h7n9 positive which all were collected from chickens. also, a novel h7n9 virus strain (a/chicken/jiangsu/1021/2013) was isolated and studied. phylogenetic analysis showed the novel isolated h7n9 virus ha...
