Insight into highly conserved H1 subtype-specific epitopes in influenza virus hemagglutinin.
Influenza viruses continuously undergo antigenic changes with gradual accumulation of mutations in hemagglutinin (HA) that is a major determinant in subtype specificity. The identification of conserved epitopes within specific HA subtypes gives an important clue for developing new vaccines and diagn...
