Influenza virus, computer artwork
Influenza virus. Computer artwork of an influenza (flu) virus. The virus consists of a core of RNA (ribonucleic acid) genetic material surrounded by a protein coat. Embedded in the coat are surface proteins. There are two types of surface protein, haemagglutinin and neuraminidase, and each exist in several subtypes. Both surface proteins are associated with the pathogenicity of the virus. Haemagglutinin binds to host cells, allowing the virus to enter them and replicate. Neuraminidase allows the new particles to exit the host after replication

EDITORS COMMENTS
This computer artwork showcases the intricate structure of an influenza (flu) virus. At its core lies RNA, the genetic material that drives its replication and survival. Surrounding this vital core is a protective protein coat, which acts as a shield for the virus. Embedded within this coat are surface proteins known as haemagglutinin and neuraminidase. These surface proteins play crucial roles in determining the pathogenicity of the virus. Haemagglutinin serves as a key to unlock host cells, enabling the virus to invade and multiply within them. Neuraminidase, on the other hand, facilitates the exit of newly replicated viral particles from their host. The image also highlights that both haemagglutinin and neuraminidase exist in various subtypes, further contributing to their ability to infect different hosts or cause diverse strains of flu viruses. With its vibrant colors and meticulous details, this artwork not only captures the beauty of biology but also provides valuable insights into virology and medicine. It serves as a reminder of how these microscopic pathogens can have significant impacts on our health – from seasonal outbreaks to potential pandemics such as avian flu or bird flu caused by specific strains like H5N1. Overall, this stunning illustration offers viewers a glimpse into the complex world of influenza viruses while emphasizing their role as formidable biological entities capable of causing widespread illness if left unchecked.
