Investigating the mechanisms of influenza polymerase host adaptation
2014-01-01
Abstract excerpt
An avian virus can become adapted to humans by mutating or recombining with currently circulating human viruses. These viruses have the potential to cause pandemics in an immunologically naïve human population. Host restriction involves multiple determinants, however, influenza polymerase is considered to play an important role. The heterotrimeric polymerase complex (PA, PB1 and PB2) associates with viral RNA and...
