INFLUENZA VIRUS HEMAGGLUTININ COMPLEXED WITH AN ANTIBODY THAT PREVENTS THE HEMAGGLUTININ LOW PH FUSOGENIC TRANSITION

Overview

We have determined the structure of a complex of influenza hemagglutinin, (HA) with an antibody that binds simultaneously to the membrane-distal, domains of two HA monomers, effectively cross-linking them. The antibody, prevents the low pH structural transition of HA that is required for its, membrane fusion activity, providing evidence that a rearrangement of HA, membrane-distal domains is an essential component of the transition.
