[The characteristics of the evolutionary variability of influenza A (H1N1) viruses].
Studies of the antigenic structure of hemagglutinins of influenza A (H1N1) viruses isolated in 1978-1988 using monospecific and monoclonal antibodies demonstrated the strains of the H1N1 subtype to be highly apt to antigenic drift. The evolutional variability of that period was peculiar and characterized by antigenic drift in various directions. In those years, the variants were regularly isolated which had retained the determinants of viruses of 1933-1957 circulation period in their hemagglutinin structure. The variants containing in their hemagglutinin 2 antigenic sites common with A/USSR/090/77 virus and antigenic groupings characterizing the strain specificity of each isolate, were epidemically active. At the same time, epidemically important variants were dominant whose properties were markedly different from those of previously known viruses. Their hemagglutinin contained 2 basically new antigenic determinants. This direction of evolutional development of influenza A (H1N1) virus is the most prospective epidemically.
