Site-specific glycosylation profile of influenza A (H1N1) hemagglutinin through tandem mass spectrometry
19 Oct 2017
Abstract excerpt
The study of influenza virus evolution in humans has revealed a significant role of glycosylation profile alterations in the viral glycoproteins - hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA), in the emergence of both seasonal and pandemic strains. Viral antigenic drift can modify the number and location of glycosylation sites, altering a wide range of biological activities and the antigenic properties of the...
