This article describes the structure of the influenza A virus. The virus uses surface proteins called haemagglutinin and neuraminidase to enter host cells.

This is the first time we’ve had access to an influenza genome from the 1918–1920 pandemic in Switzerland. It opens up new ...

Determining the structure of a protein called hemagglutinin on the surface of influenza B is giving researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and Rice University in ...

Determining the structure of a protein called hemagglutinin on the surface of influenza B is giving researchers clues as to what kinds of mutations could spark the next flu pandemic.

Since details about influenza VLPs are scant, a team of researchers developed a 3-D model based on the 1918 H1 pandemic influenza virus.

The Structure of the Influenza Virus A sequel to "The Influenza Virus," published in the April, 1953, issue of this magazine. Since that time the behavior of the virus has been increasingly ...

MIT chemists have discovered the structure of an influenza B protein called BM2, a finding that could help researchers design drugs that block the protein and help prevent the virus from spreading.

BYU researchers coauthor a paper in Science, one of the top two science journals in the world. Their research determines the structure of the influenza virus down to the atomic level. The work lays ...

The Ren lab has previously shown that this is the case for the influenza A virus, the only known type of influenza that can cause flu pandemics, and SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

Now, a team of MIT scientists has found and unveiled the structure of the virus, particularly the key influenza protein, in the hopes to develop new drugs to combat influenza.
