Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our database search of avian H5N1 influenza viruses identified 59 HA mutations that had been selected in infected patients. Using reverse genetics, we found that H5N1 variants with some of these HA mutations had increased human-type receptor specificity and increased HA membrane fusion activity, both of which are advantageous for viral replication in human airway epithelia. Furthermore, HA mutants selected during viral replication in patients were likely to have less HA stability, apparently as compensatory mechanism. Our findings showed that H5N1 viruses could rapidly adapt to growth in the human airway microenvironment by altering HA properties in infected patients and provided new insights into the human-adaptive mechanisms of avian influenza viruses.
