D225G mutation in the hemagglutinin protein found in 3 severe cases of 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) in Spain
Abstract
From 27 April to 16 December 2009, we analyzed the hemagglutinin gene sequence of 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) virus in 189 respiratory specimens. We only found the D225G mutation in 3 severe cases. However, it was not found in samples from other cases with or without clinical criteria of severity. The biologic significance of this mutation remains still unclear.
