Hemagglutinin-esterase-fusion (HEF) protein of influenza C virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Influenza C virus, a member of the Orthomyxoviridae family, causes flu-like disease but typically only with mild symptoms. Humans are the main reservoir of the virus, but it also infects pigs and dogs.

Predicting Fixation Tendencies of the H3N2 Influenza Virus by Free Energy Calculation [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Chem. Theory Comput. 7 (2011) 1259-1272, 2012
Influenza virus evolves to escape from immune system antibodies that bind to it. We used free energy calculations with Einstein crystals as reference states to calculate the difference of antibody binding free energy ($\Delta\Delta G$) induced by amino acid substitution at each position in epitope B of the H3N2 influenza hemagglutinin, the key target ...

Structure of the Hemagglutinin Precursor Cleavage Site, a Determinant of Influenza Pathogenicity and the Origin of the Labile Conformation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The membrane fusion potential of influenza HA, like many viral membrane-fusion glycoproteins, is generated by proteolytic cleavage of a biosynthetic precursor.

Synthetic Biology‐Based Engineering Cells for Drug Delivery

open access: yesExploration, Volume 5, Issue 2, April 2025.
Synthetic biology‐based therapeutic cells for drug delivery: Engineered cells effectively transport and release drugs through their intelligence and controllability, such as feedback pathways and external stimuli (e.g., light and ultrasound). The integration of nanotechnology, including nanoparticles, biofilms, and artificial cells, enhances ...

Antibody contributes to heterosubtypic protection against influenza A-induced tachypnea in cotton rats

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2008
Background Influenza virus infection or vaccination evokes an antibody response to viral hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) surface glycoproteins, which results in immunity against influenza A viruses of the same HA and NA subtype.

The Use of a Quantitative Fusion Assay to Evaluate HN–Receptor Interaction for Human Parainfluenza Virus Type 3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Sialic acid is the receptor determinant for the human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPF3) hemagglutinin–neuraminidase (HN) glycoprotein, the molecule responsible for binding of the virus to cell surfaces.

Broadly protective bispecific antibodies that simultaneously target influenza virus hemagglutinin and neuraminidase

open access: yesmBio
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are an attractive therapeutic platform for the prevention and treatment of influenza virus infection. There are two major glycoproteins on the influenza virion surface: hemagglutinin (HA), which is responsible for viral ...

Mapping of the Influenza-A Hemagglutinin Serotypes Evolution by the ISSCOR Method [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
Analyses and visualizations by the ISSCOR method of influenza virus hemagglutinin genes of different A-subtypes revealed some rather striking temporal relationships between groups of individual gene subsets. Based on these findings we consider application of the ISSCOR-PCA method for analyses of large sets of homologous genes to be a worthwhile ...

Mucin-inspired, high molecular weight virus binding inhibitors show biphasic binding behavior to influenza A viruses [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Multivalent virus binding inhibitors are a promising new class of antivirals, preventing virus infection of cells by inhibiting the first step in the viral infection cycle - binding of viruses to the cell surface. The design of multivalent virus binding inhibitors is complex as many properties, such as inhibitor size and functionalization with virus ...
