Influenza Virus Haemagglutinin Glycoprotein (HA)

Target
HA
Molecular classification
Glycoprotein, Viral protein, Fusion protein, Class I fusion protein
01

Overview

Haemagglutinin (HA) is a major glycoprotein found on the surface of influenza viruses. It is a homotrimeric protein that mediates viral attachment to host cells via sialic acid receptors and facilitates viral entry through membrane fusion. HA is a key target for neutralizing antibodies and antiviral drugs.
