Protein detail:
| Protein name | Hemagglutinin |
| Uniprot protein ID | C3W627 |
| Protein length | 566 amino acids |
| Protein description | The HA protein is translated as an uncleaved HA0 precursor protein, folded as a trimer, and glycosylated and acylated. The HA protein binds to sialic acid-containing receptors on the cell surface, bringing about the attachment of the virus particle to the cell. This attachment induces virion internalization either through clathrin-dependent endocytosis or through clathrin- and caveolin-independent pathway. Plays a major role in the determination of host range restriction and virulence. Class I viral fusion protein. Responsible for penetration of the virus into the cell cytoplasm by mediating the fusion of the membrane of the endocytosed virus particle with the endosomal membrane. Low pH in endosomes induces an irreversible conformational change in HA2, releasing the fusion hydrophobic peptide. Several trimers are required to form a competent fusion pore. |

| Evidence | Mutations were either gradually accumulated to become fixed in currently circulating strains (D114N, S179N, S202T, S220T, I233T, K300E and E391K) or dynamic in terms of appearance and disappearance, both spatially and temporally (A203T, N458K and E508G). Some of the reported mutations have been shown to increase infection severity (D239G/N; globular head), enhance HA binding affinity to its receptor (S200P and S202T; RBD), or have deleterious effect on HA function (N458K and E508G; stem region). The continuous accumulation of mutations at the Sa site led to the gradual acquisition of glycosylation at residue 179 starting from 2015, which became a dominant feature in all strains isolated in the following years. In addition to sharing common amino acid substitutions (e.g. S179N in HA head and E530K in HA stem) |
