Changed epitopes drive the antigenic drift for influenza A (H3N2) viruses

BACKGROUND: In circulating influenza viruses, gradually accumulated mutations on the glycoprotein hemagglutinin (HA), which interacts with infectivity-neutralizing antibodies, lead to the escape of immune system (called antigenic drift). The antibody recognition is highly correlated to the conformat...
