Structural Basis for a Switch in Receptor Binding Specificity of Two H5N1 Hemagglutinin Mutants

Avian H5N1 influenza viruses continue to spread in wild birds and domestic poultry with sporadic infection in humans. Receptor binding specificity changes are a prerequisite for H5N1 viruses and other zoonotic viruses to be transmitted among humans. Previous reported hemagglutinin (HA) mutants from...
