Properties and dissemination of H5N1 viruses isolated during an influenza outbreak in migratory waterfowl in western China

TL;DR: H5N1 viruses isolated in Mongolia, Russia, Inner Mongolia, and the Liaoning Province of China after August 2005 were genetically closely related to one of the genotypes isolated during the Qinghai outbreak, suggesting the dominant nature of this genotype and underscoring the need for worldwide intensive surveillance to minimize its devastating consequences.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of amino acids in HA and PB2 critical for the transmission of H5N1 avian influenza viruses in a mammalian host.

TL;DR: The authors' mutagenesis analysis revealed that the amino acid asparagine at position 701 in the PB2 protein was a prerequisite for DKGX/35 transmission in guinea pigs, and an amino acid change in the hemagglutinin (HA) protein was responsible for HA binding to sialylated glycans and was critical for H5N1 virus transmission in Guinea pigs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Newcastle Disease Virus-Based Live Attenuated Vaccine Completely Protects Chickens and Mice from Lethal Challenge of Homologous and Heterologous H5N1 Avian Influenza Viruses

TL;DR: The results indicate that recombinant NDV is suitable as a bivalent live attenuated vaccine against both NDV and AIV infection in poultry and may also have potential use in high-risk human individuals to control the pandemic spread of lethal avian influenza.
