Description

While current influenza vaccines often lack broad protection against antigenically drifted strains, some modified hemagglutinin (HA) protein antigens have shown promise in eliciting broadly neutralizing antibodies against conserved epitopes. During infection, the mildly acidic environment of the late endosome triggers irreversible HA conformational changes resulting in a post-fusion structure with altered antigenicity.
