Haemagglutinin viral surface protein F006 / 9470
Haemagglutinin viral surface protein. Molecular model of haemagglutinin, a surface protein from the influenza virus, complexed with a neutralising antibody. Haemagglutinins function is to bind to the surface of its target cell and allow the viral genes into the cell, where replication occurs. There are 16 different types of haemagglutinin known, numbered 1-16. H1, H2 and H3 are found in human flu viruses, the rest mainly affect birds

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Haemagglutinin, a viral surface protein found in the influenza virus. The image depicts a complex formation between Haemagglutinin and a neutralizing antibody, highlighting the crucial role this protein plays in infection and disease. Haemagglutinin acts as a key that unlocks the target cell's surface, allowing viral genes to enter and initiate replication. With 16 different known types, including H1, H2, and H3 commonly found in human flu viruses, Haemagglutinin exhibits remarkable diversity. Other types primarily affect birds. The white background accentuates the detailed illustration of this glycoprotein molecule's tertiary structure. Alpha helices and beta sheets elegantly intertwine to form an antigenic powerhouse capable of triggering immune responses within our bodies. This mesmerizing artwork serves as an invaluable tool for research in virology, microbiology, biochemistry, and medicine. Its visual representation aids scientists in understanding how inhibitors can disrupt viral proteins' function to combat infections effectively. Displayed here is not just a mere photograph but rather an insightful glimpse into the world of molecular biology. It encapsulates years of scientific discovery condensed into one stunning image—proof that artistry can coexist harmoniously with medical knowledge to advance healthcare for all humankind.
