Haemagglutinin viral surface protein C015 / 9965
Haemagglutinin viral surface protein. Molecular model of haemagglutinin, a surface protein from the influenza virus, complexed with a neutralising antibody. Haemagglutinins function is to bind to the surface of its target cell and allow the viral genes into the cell, where replication occurs. There are 16 different types of haemagglutinin known, numbered 1-16. H1, H2 and H3 are found in human flu viruses, the rest mainly affect birds

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Haemagglutinin viral surface protein C015 / 9965. The image depicts a detailed illustration of this crucial surface protein from the influenza virus, bound to a neutralizing antibody. Against a clean white background, the complex arrangement of atoms and bonds is beautifully highlighted. Haemagglutinin plays a vital role in the flu virus's ability to infect its target cells. Its primary function is to bind to the cell's surface, enabling the entry of viral genes and subsequent replication within the host cell. This particular haemagglutinin variant belongs to subtype C015 / 9965, one among sixteen known types identified so far. While H1, H2, and H3 are commonly found in human flu viruses, other subtypes predominantly affect avian species. The scientific significance of this image lies in its contribution towards understanding influenza biology and medicine. By studying these molecular models and their interactions with antibodies or inhibitors, researchers gain insights into potential therapeutic strategies for combating influenza infections. With elements such as glycoproteins and antigens intricately depicted within this artwork-like representation, it serves as an invaluable resource for those involved in virology research or proteomics studies. Furthermore, by providing a visually striking depiction that combines both artistic appeal and scientific accuracy, this print stands as a testament to LAGUNA DESIGN/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY's commitment to delivering high-quality visual resources for educational purposes across various fields
