A/Canada/720/05 (A/Canada/720/2005) Background

Influenza A virus is capable of rapid genetic change in mammals. In humans, the need to escape preexisting immunity exerts positive selection pressure on changes in amino acids comprising the antigenic sites of the surface glycoproteins, hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). H2N2 is a subtype of the species influenzavirus A. Pandemic influenza viruses cause significant mortality in humans. In the 20th century, 3 influenza viruses caused major pandemics: the 1918 H1N1 virus, the 1957 H2N2 virus, and the 1968 H3N2 virus. Both the H2N2 and H3N2 pandemic strains contained avian influenza virus RNA segments. "While the pandemic human influenza viruses of 1957 (H2N2) and 1968 (H3N2) clearly arose through reassortment between human and avian viruses, the influenza virus causing the 'Spanish flu' in 1918 appears to be entirely derived from an avian source (Belshe 2005).

Sino Biological Inc offers Recombinant Hemagglutinin Protein from the A/Brevig Mission/1/1918 (H1N1), and rabbit monoclonal antibodies to the swine Influenza H1N1 Hemagglutinin protein for research aim.
