PB2 and Hemagglutinin Mutations Are Major Determinants of Host Range and Virulence in Mouse-Adapted Influenza A Virus

Serial mouse lung passage of a human influenza A virus, A/Hong Kong/1/68 (H3N2) (HK-wt), produced a mouse-adapted variant, MA, with nine mutations that was >10(3.8)-fold more virulent. In this study, we demonstrate that MA mutations of the PB2 (D701N) and hemagglutinin (HA) (G218W in HA1 and T156...
