Abstract excerpt
Neuraminidase (NA)-deficient mutant virus stocks have been obtained by passaging A/NWS/33HA-tern/Australia/G70c/75NA (H1N9) influenza virus in medium containing neuraminidase from Micromonospora viridifaciens and antiserum against the influenza NA. Growth of the resulting mutants is dependent on addition of bacterial neuraminidase to the medium. Nucleotide sequence analysis showed large single deletions in the NA...
