Genesis and Spread of Newly Emerged Highly Pathogenic H7N9 Avian Viruses in Mainland China.

TL;DR: This study comprehensively analyzed the sequences of HPAI H7N9 viruses from 28 human and 21 environmental samples covering eight provinces in China that were taken from November 2016 to June 2017 and showed that the ancestor virus of the HPAi H7n9 viruses originated in the Yangtze River Delta region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological characterisation of the emerged highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H7N9) viruses in humans, in mainland China, 2016 to 2017

TL;DR: The insertion of four amino acids at the haemagglutinin cleavage site enabled trypsin-independent infectivity of this virus and the neuraminidase substitution R292K conferred a multidrug resistance phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

mapping of H3n2 influenza antigenic evolution in China reveals a strategy for vaccine strain recommendation

TL;DR: This work develops a computational method, denoted as PREDAC, to predict antigenic clusters of influenza A (H3N2) viruses with high accuracy from viral HA sequences and demonstrates that the coupling of large-scale HA sequencing withPREDAC can significantly improve vaccine strain recommendation for China.
