Hemolysis by liposomes containing influenza virus hemagglutinins.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Liposomes containing influenza virus hemagglutinin were reassembled from envelopes solubilized with Nonidet P-40 and were shown to induce hemolysis and cell fusion at low pH.

Inhibition of Influenza A Virus (H1N1) Fusion by Benzenesulfonamide Derivatives Targeting Viral Hemagglutinin
Hemagglutinin (HA) of the influenza virus plays a crucial role in the early stage of the viral life cycle by binding to sialic acid on the surface of host epithelial cells and mediating fusion between virus envelope and endosome membrane for the release of viral genomes into the cytoplasm. To initiate virus fusion, endosome pH is lowered by acidification causing an irreversible conformational c...
متن کاملNovel inhibitors of influenza virus fusion: structure-activity relationship and interaction with the viral hemagglutinin.
A new class of N-(1-thia-4-azaspiro[4.5]decan-4-yl)carboxamide inhibitors of influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA)-mediated membrane fusion that has a narrow and defined structure-activity relationship was identified. In Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells infected with different strains of human influenza virus A/H3N2, the lead compound, 4c, displayed a 50% effective concentration of 3 to 23 m...
متن کاملReceptor-binding properties of swine influenza viruses isolated and propagated in MDCK cells.
To study the receptor specificities of H1 and H3 influenza viruses isolated recently from pigs, we employed the analogues of natural receptors, namely sialyloligosaccharides conjugated with polyacrylamide in biotinylated and label free forms. All Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell-propagated viruses with human H3 or classical swine H1 hemagglutinins bound only to Neu5Acalpha2-6Galbeta1-beari...
متن کاملSearching of Main Cause Leading to Severe Influenza A Virus Mutations and Consequently to Influenza Pandemics/Epidemics
The unpredictable mutations in the proteins from influenza A virus lead to the great difficulty in prevention of possible outbreak of bird flu and pandemic/epidemic of influenza. This unpredictability is due to the fact that we know little about the causes that lead to the mutations. In three of our recent studies on the hemagglutinins from influenza A virus, we unintentionally noticed the peri...
متن کاملFusion of influenza virus membranes with liposomes at pH 7.5.
Influenza virus X-31 (H3N2) membranes fuse with liposomes containing ganglioside GD1a at pH 7.5. Fusion was demonstrated by electron microscopy and also can be measured by counting the labeled virus proteins incorporated into liposomes after bound virus has been removed. Liposomes composed of lipids that have no net charge behave as reported by other investigators and do not fuse with influenza...
