  1. 1. Influenza A Virus : Spatial analysis of influenza genome trafficking and the evolution of the neuraminidase protein

    Författare :Dan Dou; Robert Daniels; Martin Schwemmle; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Influenza A virus; IAV; neuraminidase; NA; IAV genome trafficking; viral entry; viral replication; co-infection; antigenic drift; antigenic shift; NA assembly; transmembrane domain; evolution; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Influenza A viruses (IAVs) are a common infectious agent that seasonally circulates within the human population that causes mild to severe acute respiratory infections. The severity of the infection is often related to how the virus has evolved with respect to the pre-existing immunity in the population. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Influenza Neuraminidase : Conserved features of a rapidly mutating virus

    Författare :Henrik Östbye; Pia Ädelroth; Anice Lowen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; influenza; virology; neuraminidase; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Influenza A viruses (IAVs) of the H1N1 and H3N2 serotypes are the major cause of seasonal influenza epidemics. IAVs are labeled based on the antigenic properties of the two surface glycoproteins and main antigens: hemagglutinin (HA/H) and neuraminidase (NA/N). LÄS MER

  4. 3. Avian Influenza Virus : Deciphering receptor interactions and their role in interspecies transmission

    Författare :Per Eriksson; Patrik Ellström; Björn Olsen; Josef D. Järhult; Åke Lundkvist; Jonas Waldenström; Hans-Dieter Klenk; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; birds; glycobiology; glycovirology; host range; mixing vessel; virus attachment; Medical Virology; Medicinsk virologi;

    Sammanfattning : Influenza A virus (IAV) annually infects approximately 5–15 % of the human population, causing ~500,000 deaths globally. Novel IAVs have emerged and spread pandemically in the human population, but have over time established endemic circulation with reduced pathogenicity causing seasonal influenza. The natural reservoir of IAVs is wild waterfowl. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Influenza neuraminidase assembly : Evolution of domain cooperativity

    Författare :Diogo da Silveira Vieira da Silva; Robert Daniels; Ron Fouchier; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Influenza; neuraminidase; assembly; transmembrane domain; evolution; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Influenza A virus (IAV) is one of the most common viruses circulating in the human population and is responsible for seasonal epidemics that affect millions of individuals worldwide. The need to develop new drugs and vaccines against IAVs led scientists to study the main IAV surface antigens hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Influenza A virus in wild birds

    Författare :Anders Wallensten; Björn Olsen; Lennart Svensson; Åke Lundkvist; Mikael Berg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Influenza A virus; Wild Birds; Ducks; Prevalence; Ecology; Virology; Virologi;

    Sammanfattning : Influenza virus is a RNA virus that exists as different types and subtypes. Influenza A virus strains are known to cause disease in several bird and mammalian species. Wild birds are believed to constitute the natural reservoir for influenza A virus. LÄS MER
