چکیده
Eckert, Edward A. (The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor). Characterization of a low molecular weight antigenic protein from the envelope of influenza virus. J. Bacteriol. 92:1430-1434. 1966.-An antigenic protein from the lipid-extracted residue of influenza virus strain PR8 was solubilized with urea-dithiothreitol (DTT). The protein subunits had a sedimentation coefficient of 2S in urea-DTT and reassociated to a 4S state on dialysis. This form of the envelope protein did not agglutinate erythrocytes, but reacted with strain-specific antisera in the complement-fixation and blocking-antigen tests.

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 ...
متن کاملEvaluating the Immunogenicity of Avian Influenza Virus Nucleoprotein
Background: Influenza viruses cause Avian Influenza (AI) is a serious infectious disease belonging to type A Orthomyxovirus. A viral RNA synthesis is due to an interaction of the nucleoprotein (NP) with the viral polymerase. In the present study, we have evaluated the immunogenicity of avian influenza virus nucleoprotein. Materials & Methods: An Influenza Virus N9H2 subtype A/Chicken I...

The impending influenza virus pandemic requires global vaccination to prevent large-scale mortality and morbidity, but traditional influenza virus vaccine production is too slow for rapid responses. In this study, bacterial system has been developed for expression and purification of properly folded HA1 antigen as a rapid response to emerging pandemic strains. Here, a recombinant H5N1 (A/Indone...
متن کاملMolecular and Phylogenetic Analysis and Protein Structural modeling of NS Gene of Human Influenza A Virus Subtype H1N1 Circulating in Iran 2015 & 2017
Abstract Background: The NS (non-structural) genomic segment of influenza A virus expresses two proteins (NS1 and NS2) which are responsible for the virulence and pathogenicity of virus. In this study we investigate the characterization and variability of the NS gene recovered from H1N1 influenza viruses isolated from Iranian patients during the 2017 seasonal outbreak and from high...
