Mouse Anti-Influenza A Virus H10 Subtype Haemagglutinin (HA) Monoclonal Antibody

The influenza A virus H10 subtype hemagglutinin (HA) is a critical surface glycoprotein that is essential for the virus's infectivity. The HA protein enables the virus to bind to sialic acid receptors on host cells, initiating the process of viral entry. Following binding, the HA undergoes a conformational change that triggers membrane fusion, allowing the release of the viral genome into the host cell. As a target for antiviral strategies, the H10 subtype HA is significant due to its role in host-cell recognition and fusion. The HA protein is a primary antigen that induces the production of neutralizing antibodies, making it a component of vaccines designed to protect against influenza infection. Inhibiting the HA function could prevent the virus from entering host cells, thus limiting the spread of the infection.
