Fusion pore conductance to determine the effects of mutating the structure of influenza virus hemagglutinin

Enveloped viruses, such as influenza, infect cells by fusing their viral envelope with the cell membrane. The fusion pore is a macromolecular structure that links two membranes that are fusing. This paper will focus on the fusion pore initiated by the hemagglutinin (HA) protein of influenza virus u...
