The team has engineered antibody Fc fragments with enhanced sialic acid that target these conserved parts of both HA and NA, binding influenza viruses and thus blocking their interactions with human cells.
Glycophorins (sialoglycoproteins), which carry the MNS (glycophorin A/GPA and glycophorin B/GPB) and Gerbich (glycophorin C/GPC and glycophorin D/GPD) BGAs, are rich in sialic acid (N-acetylneuraminic acid) and account for much of the net negative surface charge responsible for the natural repulsion of RBCs.
(32), studying children with overweight and obesity, showed alterations in the concentrations of phosphate, free sialic acid and proteins, as well as in the peroxidase activity, conditions favorable to the development of dental caries.
HA is responsible for receptor binding and NA is responsible for cleaving sialic acids from receptors and work as facilitator to release virus during budding from host cells (Ito, 2000).
