Specifications
Target Information
The avian influenza virus (AIV) H5 subtype is a particularly significant strain within the type A influenza viruses that primarily affect birds, including wild aquatic fowl and domestic poultry. The H5 subtype is known for its high pathogenicity, which can lead to severe disease outbreaks in avian populations, with potential zoonotic implications affecting human health. The H5 subtype is characterized by the presence of the hemagglutinin (HA) type 5 protein on its surface, which enables the virus to bind to host cell receptors and initiate infection. The HA protein is a key target for the host immune response and is also the primary antigenic determinant for influenza vaccines.
