Influenza A virions possess two surface glycoproteins—the hemagglutinin (HA) and
neuraminidase (NA)—which exert opposite functions. HA attaches virions to cells by binding …

Traditionally, the viral replication cycle is envisioned as a single, well-defined loop with four
major steps: attachment and entry into a target cell, replication of the viral genome …

The recent research findings on influenza A virus (IAV) genome biology prompted us to
present a comprehensive overview of IAV genes, protein functions, and replication cycle …

Influenza A viruses (IAVs) occasionally cross the species barrier and adapt to novel host
species. This requires readjustment of the functional balance of the sialic acid receptor …

Viral evolution refers to the genetic changes that a virus accumulates during its lifetime
which can arise from adaptations in response to environmental changes or the immune …

Influenza A virus (IAV) enters cells by binding to sialic acid on the cell surface. To
accomplish this while avoiding immobilization by sialic acid in host mucus, viruses rely on a …

Interactions of influenza A virus (IAV) with sialic acid (SIA) receptors determine viral fitness
and host tropism. Binding to mucus decoy receptors and receptors on epithelial host cells is …

Influenza A virus (IAV) continues to pose an enormous and unpredictable global public
health threat, largely due to the continual evolution of escape from preexisting immunity and …

Understanding how influenza viruses traverse the mucus and recognize host cells is critical
for evaluating their zoonotic potential, and for prevention and treatment of the disease. The …
