Klebsiella pneumoniae is an infectious bacteria in various parts of the body. The presence of proteins in pili that will bind to cell surface receptors (adhesin proteins) and cell membrane sugar molecules (hemagglutinin proteins) is a very influential ...

Stalking influenza by vaccination with pre-fusion headless HA mini-stem. [PDF]
Inaccuracies in prediction of circulating viral strain genotypes and the possibility of novel reassortants causing a pandemic outbreak necessitate the development of an anti-influenza vaccine with increased breadth of protection and potential for rapid ...

Development of vaccines with a broad-spectrum of protection is one of the priorities in the programs of influenza prevention. Recently, the conserved fragments of influenza virus proteins (M1, M2, NP, the second subunit of the hemagglutinin HA2) provoke ...

Influenza The morbidity and economic tolls of influenza virus are huge, regardless of its capacity to kill. Vaccines and therapies to control this persistent threat are limited. In structural studies, Kadam and Wilson show how the broad-spectrum antiviral arbidol inactivates viral hemagglutinin (HA).

Antigenic drift in H5N1 avian influenza virus in poultry is driven by mutations in major antigenic sites of the hemagglutinin molecule analogous to those for human influenza virus [PDF]
H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus has been endemic in poultry in Egypt since 2008, notwithstanding the implementation of mass vaccination and culling of infected birds.

Recognition of viral glycoproteins by influenza A-specific cross- reactive cytolytic T lymphocytes [PDF]
Two populations of cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) generated after influenza A virus infection can be distinguished into one with specificity for the sensitizing hemagglutinin type and a second with cross-reactivity for antigens induced by other type-A ...

Mitogenicity of influenza hemagglutinin glycoproteins and influenza viruses bearing H2-hemagglutinin [PDF]
The hemagglutinin glycoprotein is responsible for the mitogenic effect of influenza A viruses of the H2N2 subtype. This was indicated by the ability of viruses bearing the H2-hemagglutinin glycoprotein, regardless of its associated neuraminidase, to induce lymphocyte proliferation in normal spleen cell suspensions and by the ability of antisera with ...
