[ 1 ] - Molecular Characterization and Phylogenetic Analysis of Neuraminidase Gene in A/H1N1 Influenza Virus Isolates Circulating in Iran, 2014-2015.

Objectives: Influenza is one of the most important emerging and reemerging infectious diseases in the world. The aim of this study is molecular and phylogenetic analyses of the variations in circulating influenza A/H1N1 virus isolates during 2014-2015 in Iran and investigate on the drug resistance conditions in the related Iranian isolates. Material and Methods: Throat samples from Iranian pat...

[ 2 ] - Molecular 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...
