Evolution of H5N1 Cross‐Species Transmission: Adaptive Mutations Driving Avian‐to‐Human Infection

Advanced Genetics, Volume 7, Issue 1, March 2026.
This review synthesizes current knowledge on the molecular mechanisms underpinning H5N1's host adaptation, focusing on key mutations in viral proteins. Critical mutations are discussed in detail, highlighting their roles in altering receptor specificity, promoting antiviral resistance, and expanding viral tropism. The review underscores the urgent need

Mounting Evidence for an Expanded Host Range of Influenza B Viruses

Viruses
Influenza B viruses (IBV) belong to the family of Orthomyxoviridae and circulate annually in humans causing respiratory illness. Although they are considered an exclusively human pathogen, there is evidence of IBV infections in animals, including ...

Transcriptional analysis of antiviral small molecule therapeutics as agonists of the RLR pathway

Genomics Data, 2016
The recognition of pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by pattern recognition receptors (PRR) during viral infection initiates the induction of antiviral signaling pathways, including activation of the Interferon Regulator Factor 3 (IRF3).

Drivers of Viral Diversity and Sharing in Marine Mammals

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 6, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Knowledge of viral infection in marine mammals, a group severely threatened by human activity, is largely limited to the pathology and epidemiology of few endemic viruses. The recent emergence in marine mammals of high‐consequence viruses, such as H5N1 avian influenza and rabies, underscores the importance of understanding the ecology of viral

The Power of First Impressions: Can Influenza Imprinting during Infancy Inform Vaccine Design?

Vaccines, 2020
Influenza virus infection causes severe respiratory illness in people worldwide, disproportionately affecting infants. The immature respiratory tract coupled with the developing immune system, and lack of previous exposure to the virus is thought to ...

Genome‐Wide Codon Reprogramming Enables a Multifactorially Attenuated Influenza Vaccine with Broad Cross‐Protection

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, 13 February 2026.
Genome‐wide codon reprogramming of influenza A virus introduces 1956 synonymous mutations across five segments and elevates CpG content, causing defective NA packaging, loss of NS1 accumulation, and enhanced ZAP‐mediated antiviral responses without affecting RNA or protein synthesis. These mechanisms result in profound attenuation and potent homologous

A novel broad-spectrum treatment for respiratory virus infections : influenza-based defective interfering virus provides protection against pneumovirus infection in vivo [PDF]

, 2011
Respiratory viruses represent a major clinical burden. Few vaccines and antivirals are available, and the rapid appearance of resistant viruses is a cause for concern.

Cryotomography of budding influenza a virus reveals filaments with diverse morphologies that mostly do not bear a genome at their distal end [PDF]

, 2013
Influenza viruses exhibit striking variations in particle morphology between strains. Clinical isolates of influenza A virus have been shown to produce long filamentous particles while laboratory-adapted strains are predominantly spherical.
