More info
Influenza (flu) is important respiratory pathogens in mammals and can also produce highly fatal systemic disease in domestic poultry. Influenza A is found in a wide variety of bird and mammal species and is further divided into subtypes based on differences in the membrane proteins hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA). H4N6 is a subtype of Influenza A which was first isolated from pigs with pneumonia on a commercial swine farm in Canada. Hemagglutinin (HA) is a single-pass type I integral membrane glycoprotein from the influenza virus, and comprises over 80% of the envelope proteins present in the virus particle. HA plays a major role in the determination of host range restriction and virulence.
