In 1918, this pandemic occurs and remains in history as the worst outbreak of infectious disease
The influenza virus affect this in humans
This is caused when the haemagglutinin proteins or the haemagglutinin-esterase-fusion bind to sialic acid
What receptor-cleaving proteins release new viruses from the cell surface after they are assembled

Viral infection is initiated when a virion binds to cell surface receptors that contain this
After the viral and endosomal membranes fuse together, these are released into the cytoplasm and then transported into the nucleus

This is what Hemagglutinin is
Hemagglutinin plays a key role in what pathway for the influenza virus
This is what the word “influenza” means in the Italian language, which is also where it originated from
This is the site of influenza virus assembly
This is what hemagglutinin uses on influenza virus particles to make it readily recognized by host antibodies when the influenza virus infects the host
During what cycle does the viral-specific RNA polymerase make a high frequency of errors in its synthesis of viral RNAs. The errors created during this cycle will create a lot of variations of the Hemagglutinin glycoprotein

Two ways that one can be exposed to the influenza virus is through natural infection or __________
Due to not having a sufficient degree of __________, new influenza virus strains are always circulating and come back year after year
This is when there are changes in the hemagglutinin glycoproteins
