2017-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) may result in the infection of millions of poultry, causing devastating disease and up to 100% mortality. Avian influenza outbreaks and laboratory experiments have shown that HPAIV can emerge from low pathogenicity avian influenza virus (LPAIV) precursors. The multi-basic cleavage site (MBCS) in the haemagglutinin protein is described as the main pathoge...
