1994～1997年深圳地区流感病毒活动及H3N2亚型毒株HA1基因演变特点

目的　了解近几年流感病毒在深圳地区活动的特点及甲３（Ｈ３Ｎ２） 亚型毒株ＨＡ１ 基因演变概况。方法　病毒分离采用常规的鸡胚双腔接种,毒株检定用常量半加敏ＨＩ测定。新鲜收获含病毒粒的鸡胚尿囊液用来提取ＲＮＡ,经逆转录合成ｃＤＮＡ,经聚合酶链反应（ＰＣＲ） 扩增,产物纯化,采用双脱氧链末端终止法进行核苷酸序列测定。结果　近几年来深圳地区流感活动概况与全国情况相一致：在人群中仍同时流行Ｈ３Ｎ２,Ｈ１Ｎ１ 亚型和乙型毒株,当甲型毒株活动减弱时,乙型毒株活动就增强,反之,甲型毒株增强时,乙型毒株就减弱。随着时间的推移,Ｈ３Ｎ２ 亚型毒株ＨＡ１ 基因不断地发生点突变,这种突变严重受人群免疫压力所影响,１９９６ 年的毒株与１９９５ 的毒株相比,不仅氨基酸替换点中多数是位于抗原决定簇区或受体结合部位上,并增加两个糖基化位点,故导致Ｈ３Ｎ２ 毒株於１９９６ 年活动明显增强。结论　近来在深圳地区人群中仍同时流行着Ｈ３Ｎ２,Ｈ１Ｎ１ 亚型和乙型流感病毒。然而,不同年其优势毒株是不一样的。１９９６ 年Ｈ３Ｎ２ 毒株活动增强是由于其ＨＡ１ 区氨基酸序列发生替换所造成。

从人群中分离到1株A／PR／8／34（H1N1）类病毒

１９９１年５月从１名上呼吸道感染的儿童患者中分离出１株流感病毒。经血清学鉴定和分析，分离物为Ａ／ＰＲ／８／３４（Ｈ１Ｎ１）类似毒株。病毒ＨＡ１区基因经核苷酸序列分析，分离物与Ａ／ＰＲ／８／３４毒株间有１２个位点不同，导致了ＨＡ１区蛋白分子上４个氨基酸的替换。在病毒基因组寡核苷酸指纹图分析中发现，分离物与Ａ／ＰＲ／８／３４毒株相比较丢失了２个点，而插入了９个点。因此，Ａ／广东／６／９１（Ｈ１Ｎ１）毒株不是由Ａ／ＰＲ／８／３４（Ｈ１Ｎ１）通过实验室污染而来。     

人与猪群中H3N2亚型流感病毒间关系的研究

通过血清流行病学调查、毒粒ＨＡ１基因核苷酸序列分析和ＨＡ１蛋白氨基酸序列比较，证实了人与猪Ｈ３Ｎ２亚型毒株间存在着极为密切的关系，即Ｈ３Ｎ２亚型毒株新变种在人群中出现后，很快在猪群中就能找到它存在的依据。同时猪群中Ｈ３Ｎ２亚型毒株抗体阳性率高低反映出了人群中Ｈ３Ｎ２病毒活动程度的强弱。这些结果说明，猪可能在人流感疾病发生、流行和大流行株起源中起着重要的作用。同时猪群中流感病毒抗体阳性率可做为判断人群中流感活动程度的一个指标。

Sequence of the hemagglutinin gene from influenza virus A/Seal/Mass/1/80

A double-strand DNA copy of the influenza virus A/Seal/Mass/1/80 (H7N7) [seal] hemagglutinin (HA) gene was cloned into the plasmid pAT153/PvuII/8 and sequenced to deduce the primary amino acid sequence. The gene is 1731 nucleotides long and codes for a protein of 560 amino acids with a nonglycosylated molecular weight of 62098 Da. The deduced amino acid sequence displays similarities to all other sequenced hemagglutinins by retaining six of seven potential glycosylation sites, showing conversation in the number and position of cysteine residues, conservation in the fusion and anchor peptides, and conservation in the putative receptor site of the molecule. However, three features of the primary amino acid sequence could be distinguished from the H7 amino acid sequence of A/fowl plague/Rostock/34 (FPV), another avian H7 influenza virus which does not produce disease in mammals. First, the seal HA sequence has three fewer amino acids in the connecting peptide region of the HA than FPV. This lack of multiple basic amino acids in the connecting peptide is similar to that found in avirulent H7 avian strains and to mammalian serotypes H1, H2, and H3. Second, the seal HA has gained four additional proline residues, all in HA1, as compared to FPV. These residues may alter the tertiary structure of the HA and ultimately contribute to the biological features of this virus. Third, the seal HA has lost a potential carbohydrate attachment site at residue 149 which lies at the tip of the HA structure. The loss of this carbohydrate could alter the seal HAs interaction with host cell receptors.     

Loss and gain of N-linked glycosylation sites in globular head and stem of HA found in A/H3N2 flu fatal and severe cases during 2013 Tunisia flu seasonal survey

Glycosylation on the globular head of the hemagglutinin (HA) protein of influenza virus acts as an important target for recognition and destruction of virus by innate immune proteins of the collectin family. In the current study, we have characterized the dynamic amino acid changes at N-linked glycosylation sites of full length sequences of HA genes of 5 A/H3N2 Tunisian strains isolates from mild, severe, and fatal cases. Compared to the reference strain, A/Perth/16/2009 substitutions in potential N-glycosylation sites were observed in 5 HA genes at five different positions (45, 124, 128, 144, and 145) generating the losses and gains of N-linked glycosylation sites. Also the mutation N145S was presented in the receptor-binding site of all segments analyzed. Point mutations in several positions in the gene encoding the H3 of Tunisian strains were shown to ablate a glycan attachment site and also loss of a potential glycosylation site. The relation between these mutations and virulence of influenza A/H3N2 virus needed to be verified in the further experiments.     

Changes in the haemagglutinin and the neuraminidase genes prior to the emergence of highly pathogenic H7N1 avian influenza viruses in Italy

Summary.  Outbreaks of avian influenza due to an H7N1 virus of low pathogenicity occurred in domestic poultry in northern Italy from March 1999 until December 1999 when a highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus emerged. Nucleotide sequences were determined for the HA1 and the stalk region of the neuraminidase (NA) for viruses from the outbreaks. The HPAI viruses have an unusual multibasic haemagglutinin (HA) cleavage site motif, PEIPKG RGLF. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the HPAI viruses arose from low pathogenicity viruses and that they are most closely related to a wild bird isolate, A/teal/ Taiwan/98. Additional glycosylation sites were present at amino acid position 149 of the HA for two separate lineages, and at position 123 for all HPAI and some low pathogenicity viruses. Other viruses had no additional glycosylation sites. All viruses examined from the Italian outbreaks had a 22 amino acid deletion in the NA stalk that is not present in the N1 genes of the wild bird viruses examined. We conclude that the Italian HPAI viruses arose from low pathogenicity strains, and that a deletion in the NA stalk followed by the acquisition of additional glycosylation near the receptor binding site of HA1 may be an adaptation of H7 viruses to a new host species i.e. domestic poultry.

2009-2011年广东省甲型H1N1流感病毒血凝素基因的进化特征

Isolation and molecular characterization of equine H3N8 influenza viruses from pigs in China

During 2004–2006 swine influenza virus surveillance, two strains of H3N8 influenza viruses were isolated from pigs in central China. Sequence and phylogenetic analyses of eight gene segments revealed that the two swine isolates were of equine origin and most closely related to European equine H3N8 influenza viruses from the early 1990s. Comparison of hemagglutinin (HA) amino acid sequences showed several important substitutions. One substitution caused the loss of a potential glycosylation site, and two substitutions, located at the cleavage site and adjacent to the receptor-binding pocket, respectively, had been reported previously in canine H3 HAs. This expansion of host range of equine H3N8 influenza viruses with mutations in the HA protein might raise the possibility of transmission of these viruses to humans. J. Tu and H. Zhou contributed equally to the work.     

Genetic Conservation of Hemagglutinin Gene of H9 Influenza Virus in Chicken Population in Mainland China

The hemagglutinin (HA) genes of 12 H9N2 influenza virus strains isolated from chickens in Mainland China during the period 1995–2002 were genetically analyzed. All the isolates possessed the same amino acid motif -R-S-S-R/G-L- at the cleavage site of HA. Except for the conserved amino acids, as is the case in the other avian influenza viruses, located in the receptor binding site, all of the 12 isolates possessed N at amino acid position 183; A, T, or V at position 190; K at position 137, whereas the representative strains of the other lineage (except Dk/HK/Y280/97-like lineage) virus of H9N2 viruses had H, E, and R at these positions respectively. These could be considered as the partial molecular markers of the H9 viruses isolated from chickens in Mainland China. Phylogenetic analyses showed HA genes of these isolates belonged to that of A/duck/Hong Kong/Y280/97-like virus lineage. No A/quail/Hong Kong/Gl/97-like virus was found in chicken, population since the outbreak of H9N2 influenza in Mainland China in 1992. The available evidence indicates that HA genes of H9 influenza virus circulating in Mainland China during the past years were well conserved.     

Impact of glycosylation on the immunogenicity of a DNA-based influenza H5 HA vaccine

Avian H5N1 influenza viruses isolated from humans in Hong Kong in 1997 were divided into two antigenic groups based on the presence or absence of a potential glycosylation site at amino acid residues 154-156 in the HA1 region of the viral hemagglutinin (HA) surface glycoprotein. To assess the impact of glycosylation on the immunogenicity of an HA-expressing DNA vaccine, a series of plasmid vaccine constructs that differed in the presence of potential glycosylation sites at amino acid residues 154-156, 165-167, and 286-288 were used to immunize BALB/c mice. Postvaccination serum IgG, hemagglutination inhibition, and neutralizing antibody titers as well as the morbidity and mortality following a lethal H5N1 viral challenge did not vary significantly among any of the experimental groups. We conclude that the glycosylation pattern of the influenza virus HA1 domain has little impact on the murine antibody response raised to a DNA vaccine encoding the H5 HA, thereby minimizing the concern that the pattern of glycosylation sites encoded by the vaccine match those of closely related H5 viruses.
