Influenza A Virus Internal Proteins (N/A)

Target
N/A
Molecular classification
Structural protein, Enzyme, Ion channel, RNA-binding protein
01

Overview

The internal proteins of Influenza A virus, including M1, M2, NP, PB1, PB2, PA, NEP/NS2, and PB1-F2, are essential for the virus's structure, replication, and pathogenesis. Due to their relatively high conservation compared to surface antigens, they are attractive targets for universal influenza vaccine development. Expression via single-replication vectors offers a safer method for studying immune responses and developing vaccine candidates.

02

Mechanism of action

Varied; M2 inhibitors block ion channel activity, preventing uncoating. Other internal proteins are targets for vaccine development aiming to elicit broader immune responses.
