[Formation of mixed hemagglutinin trimers during double infection with influenza virus strains of the same subtype].
Formation of hemagglutinin spikes in the course of the mixed infection of cell culture by two influenza virus strains belonging to the same antigenic subtype or to different subtypes was studied by means of immunoprecipitation of [14C]-labelled hemagglutinins from cell lysates. The immunoprecipitates were further analysed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Lysates of separately infected cells mixed before lysis were used as control samples. The analysis of immunoprecipitates revealed the formation of chimeric hemagglutinin spikes in the cells infected by the strains possessing hemagglutinins of the same subtype but not in the cells infected by the strains of different subtypes (H1 and H3). The results are discussed in connection with the homology of amino-acid sequences of influenza virus hemagglutinins.
