Host Switching Mutations in H5N1 Influenza Hemagglutinin Suppress Site-specific Activation Dynamics
2025-10-06
Abstract excerpt
Increase in the occurrence of human H5N1 spillover infections resulting from dissemination of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus into bird and mammal populations raises concerns about HPAI adapting to become human transmissible. Studies identified hemagglutinin (HA) acid stability and receptor preference as essential traits that shape host tropism. Mutations that increase HA stability and affinity for...
