Researchers have used high-speed microscopy to investigate native structure and conformational dynamics of hemagglutinin in influenza A. The influenza A viruses, which have instigated deadly ...

Virus-like particles (VLPs) are protein-based structures that mimic viruses and bind to antibodies. Because VLPs are not infectious, they show considerable promise as vaccine platforms for many viral ...

Influenza virus is a common cause of human respiratory infection with a high rate of morbidity and mortality, particularly in the elderly and in infants. The influenza particle, or virion ...

A team of MIT chemists has discovered the structure of a key influenza protein, a finding that could help researchers design drugs that block the protein and prevent the virus from spreading. The ...

As the number of Influenza A(H1N1) flu cases crept past 100 in Costa Rica, the World Health Organization declared the worldwide situation a pandemic. Based on the virus´ international reach, the ...

FIGURE 1. “The influenza virus with surface proteins hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA) is ... More shown in the left panel. The middle panel shows the X-ray structure of the HA trimeric ...

To find the answer, they developed a way to observe and measure real-time influenza A virus structure during formation. The researchers found: Influenza A viruses rapidly adjust their shape when ...

There are four types of influenza viruses—labelled A, B, C, and D—but the viruses that return every year and cause the most problems belong to the A and B groups. Influenza A viruses tend to ...
