Flu virion protein assembly, artwork
Flu virion protein assembly, artwork. Three types of flu membrane (surface) proteins are shown coming together here to form the coating for a new virion. The two main proteins are haemagglutinin (red) and neuramidase (orange). These are referred to by their initials when different strains of flu viruses are described, such as H1N1. The third protein structure here is the M2 ion channels (blue)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate assembly of flu virion proteins, providing a visual representation of the biological processes that occur during influenza infection. In this print, three types of flu membrane proteins are depicted coming together to form the coating for a new virion. The dominant proteins, haemagglutinin (red) and neuramidase (orange), play crucial roles in defining different strains of flu viruses, such as H1N1. The third protein structure featured here is the M2 ion channels (blue), which further contributes to the overall functionality and infectivity of the virus. Through this stunning illustration, viewers can appreciate how these multiple structural components interact at a molecular level to create an infectious agent responsible for causing widespread illness. With its emphasis on biology and medicine, this artwork serves as a valuable educational tool in understanding the complex nature of influenza viruses. By highlighting key molecular structures involved in viral replication and transmission, it offers insights into potential targets for antiviral therapies or vaccine development. Science Photo Library's expertise in capturing scientific concepts through visually striking images is evident in this piece. Their dedication to producing high-quality illustrations aids researchers, educators, and medical professionals alike by bridging gaps between disciplines like biochemistry, virology, proteomics, and more.
