Influence of additional acylation site(s) of influenza B virus hemagglutinin on syncytium formation.

Microbiology and immunology - 1 Jan 2005

Ujike Makoto, Nakajima Katsuhisa, Nobusawa Eri

Abstract excerpt

We studied the effects of an increase in the hydrophobicity of the transmembrane domain (TM) and cytoplasmic tail (CT) of influenza B virus hemagglutinin (BHA) on fusion activities. For this purpose, we created mutant HAs with novel acylation site(s) in the TM and/or CT. All mutants were able to induce hemifusion and to form fusion pores as well as could wild type (wt) BHA. However, the ability of these mutants...
