Human-type sialic acid receptors contribute to avian influenza A virus binding and entry by hetero-multivalent interactions

It is believed that human Influenza HA glycoprotein attaches to alpha2-6 linked sialic acids (SA) on cells, while avian viruses bind to alpha2-3 linked sialic acids, therewith contributing to host tropism.Here, Liu et al.show 36" Gas Cooktop that mixing low-affinity alpha2-3 SA with low amounts of high-affinity alpha2-6 SA increases binding and ent
