Influenza virus neuraminidase. Computer model showing the structure of the influenza virus A/Tokyo/3/67 neuraminidase with its four identical subunits


Influenza virus neuraminidase. Computer model showing the structure of the influenza virus A/Tokyo/3/67 neuraminidase with its four identical subunits. Polysaccharides are shown in yellow. The function of this surface protein is to enable the virus to be released from the host cell. It is also a drug target for the prevention of influenza infection.
