Influenza A virus infection engenders a poor antibody response against the ectodomain of matrix protein 2

BACKGROUND: Matrix protein 2 (M2) is an integral tetrameric membrane protein of influenza A virus (IAV). Its ectodomain (M2e) shows remarkably little diversity amongst human IAV strains. As M2e-specific antibodies (Abs) have been shown to reduce the severity of infection in animals, M2e is being stu...
