Abstract excerpt
Influenza A virus is highly pleomorphic with particles exhibiting either spherical or filamentous morphology. The mechanisms behind this pleomorphism and its importance in viral pathogenesis are not clearly understood. We have observed that budding of filamentous influenza A/Udorn virus particles can be readily visualized by immunofluorescence microscopy. Filamentous particle formation was inhibited by treatment...
