Zoonotic spillover is the successful transmission of a pathogenic entity—such as a virus, bacterium, or parasite—from a non-human animal reservoir into a human population. This rare but consequential event occurs when a pathogen successfully crosses the strict biological boundary between species.

The #host #tropism of current #zoonotic #H7N9 viruses depends mainly on an acid-labile #hemagglutinin with a single amino acid #mutation in the #stalk region

Source: PLoS Pathogens, AbstractThe incidence of human infection by zoonotic avian influenza viruses, especially H5N1 and H7N9 viruses, has increased. Current zoonotic H7N9 avian influenza viruses (identified since 2013) emerged during reassortment of viruses belonging to different subtypes. Despite analyses of…
