Sentence |
denotes |
Receptor binding specificity determines the site of virus infection. |
| T154 |
69-268 |
Sentence |
denotes |
It appears that wild-type influenza B/Victoria HAs possessing G141, R162 and D196 [67] and B/Yamagata HAs with F95 and N194 [68] clearly exhibit binding preference to human-type α2,6Neu5Ac receptors. |
| T155 |
269-714 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Investigation of receptor binding preference of IBV clinical isolates in Taiwan during the period from 2001 to 2007 (Table 1) revealed that (i) 83% of Yamagata-like strains prefer α2,6Sia receptors, whereas 17% of them prefer both α2,3Sia and α2,6Sia and (ii) 54% of Victoria-like strains prefer both α2,3Sia and α2,6Sia, whereas 25% of them prefer sulfated glycan, either β-Gal-3-sulfate or 6-HSO3-Galβ1,4GlcNAc, and 21% of them prefer α2,6Sia. |
| T156 |
715-862 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The viruses with dual α2,3Sia and α2,6Sia-binding preferences were shown to be associated with bronchopneumonia and gastrointestinal symptoms [66]. |
| T157 |
863-1085 |
Sentence |
denotes |
These findings indicate that the evolution of receptor binding specificity in IBVs in circulation is different from that in IAVs and indicate tissue tropism and pathogenicity of IBVs, possibly affecting virus transmission. |
