INfluenza A, B and C family of viruses
Orthomyxovius
Genus of influenza A, B and C
(Thogotovirus)
Typing of influenza A, B C
Based on matrix and nuceloprotein antigens
Subtyping of influenza based on
Based on Hemagluttin and Neuramidase
H1N1 or H2N2
Influenza stucture:
envelope virus with matrix proteins that adds structure
: key for attachement and fusion to cellular membrane
Hemagluttinin
key for release of protein virions
Neuramidase:
Ribonuclear protein of influenza has____ individual segments of RNA. Complexed with proteins key in polymerase activity
8
Genome of influenza and affect on what it brings with it to host cells
- RNA
- there is a (-) sense RNA thus virus has to carry a polymerase with it to begin replication
Drift: minor change in either
HA or NA or both
Drift: HA mutations are primarily found in the ______combining sites in the HA protein
4 antibody
*Drifts cause______ We’ll see same influenza subtype (H3N2 for example) with dif strains
EPIDEMICS!!!
Shift: major_____ shifts.
occur infrequently either
antigenic
in HA alone or NA as well.
Cause of genetic shift
D/t gene reassortment btwn human and animal strain
Shifts cause _______
*Pandemics
