Research Abstract |
In this research, I demonstrated that Influenza virus has motility and intelligence. Influenza virus moves on a cell surface by exchanging bindings between hemagglutinin and sialoglycan. Avian influenza virus tends not to move backward as an intelligent particle, since viral neuraminidase destroys sialoglycans along a track which the virus particle has moved before. I also demonstrated that virus motion pattern and intelligent level are modified by affinity of hemagglutinin to sialoglycan and enzymatic activity of neuraminidase.
