In another case, those same two cancer patients» viruses had tyrosine at position 193, but
globally circulating viruses had either phenylalanine or serine at that position, the researchers found.
Our collaborative influenza projects: 1) characterizing the temporal and spatial evolutionary dynamics of the IAV and IBV
circulating globally in humans and wild birds, 2) identifying the IAV genotypes
circulating in pigs at county fairs (swine - human interface) to determine if fairs produce novel reassortants or enable zoonosis / reverse zoonosis, 3) determining if specific internal gene segment constellations enhance viral fitness, 4) detecting epistatic interactions between gene segments, and 5) assessing the impact of inter-hemispheric migration of
viruses / gene segments.
