A #human #monoclonal #antibody targeting the monomeric #N6 #neuraminidase confers protection against avian #H5N6 #influenza virus infection
Source: Nature Communications, AbstractThe influenza neuraminidase (NA) is a potential target for the development of a next-generation influenza vaccine, but its antigenicity is not well understood. Here, we isolate an anti-N6 human monoclonal antibody, named 18_14D, from an H5N6 avian influenza virus (AIV) infected patient. The…

Farmed #fur #animals harbour #viruses with #zoonotic #spillover potential, Nature: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-024-07901-3
We identified 7 species of #coronaviruses, expanding their known host range, & documented cross-species transmission of a novel #canine respiratory coronavirus to raccoon dogs & of #bat HKU5-like CoV to #mink, present at a high abundance in lung tissues. 3 subtypes of #influenza A virus—#H1N2, #H5N6 & #H6N2—were detected in #lungs of guinea pig, mink and #muskrat, respectively.
