Recent experimental studies suggest that efficient transmission between humans of current H5N1 viruses only requires a few genetic changes. An essential step is alteration of the virus hemagglutinin from preferential binding to avian receptors for the recognition of human receptors present in the upper airway. We have identified receptor-binding changes which emerged during H5N1 infection of humans, due to single amino acid substitutions, Ala134Val and Ile151Phe, in the hemagglutinin. Detailed biological, receptor-binding, and structural analyses revealed reduced binding of the mutated viruses to avian-like receptors, but without commensurate increased binding to the human-like receptors investigated, possibly reflecting a receptor-binding phenotype intermediate in adaptation to more human-like characteristics. These observations emphasize that evolution in nature of avian H5N1 viruses to efficient binding of human receptors is a complex multistep process.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Auewarakul, P" uniqKey="Auewarakul P">P.

Recent experimental studies suggest that efficient transmission between humans of current H5N1 viruses only requires a few genetic changes. An essential step is alteration of the virus hemagglutinin from preferential binding to avian receptors for the recognition of human receptors present in the upper airway. We have identified receptor-binding changes which emerged during H5N1 infection of humans, due to single amino acid substitutions, Ala134Val and Ile151Phe, in the hemagglutinin. Detailed biological, receptor-binding, and structural analyses revealed reduced binding of the mutated viruses to avian-like receptors, but without commensurate increased binding to the human-like receptors investigated, possibly reflecting a receptor-binding phenotype intermediate in adaptation to more human-like characteristics. These observations emphasize that evolution in nature of avian H5N1 viruses to efficient binding of human receptors is a complex multistep process.</p></abstract><abstract abstract-type="author-highlights"><title>Highlights</title><p><list list-type="simple"><list-item id="u0005"><label>•</label><p>Changes in receptor binding of HA during H5N1 human infection were identified.</p></list-item><list-item id="u0010"><label>•</label><p>Single A134V and L151F substitutions caused reduced affinity for avian receptors.</p></list-item><list-item id="u0015"><label>•</label><p>Glycan array analyses were used to identify changes in receptor binding specificity.</p></list-item><list-item id="u0020"><label>•</label><p>Structural basis for altered receptor binding was examined by X-ray crystallography.</p></list-item></list></p></abstract><kwd-group><title>Keywords</title><kwd>H5N1 influenza infection</kwd><kwd>Pyrosequencing</kwd><kwd>Hemagglutinin</kwd><kwd>Receptor specificity</kwd><kwd>Hemagglutination assays</kwd><kwd>Receptor binding</kwd><kwd>Carbohydrate microarray</kwd><kwd>Biolayer interferometry</kwd><kwd>Synthetic sialylglycopolymers</kwd><kwd>Hemagglutinin X-ray crystal structure</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body><sec sec-type="intro" id="s0005"><title>Introduction</title><p>Since 1997, highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) viruses have spread among poultry and wild birds in Asia, the Middle-East, Europe and Africa and caused over 600 reported human infections in 15 countries with a case-fatality ratio of approximately 60% (<xref rid="bib46" ref-type="bibr">WHO, 2012</xref>). Sporadic human infections continue to occur in countries where A(H5N1) viruses have become endemic in birds, providing a persistent threat to global health due to the possibility of virus adaptation towards efficient transmission among humans and ensuing pandemic spread. Recent evidence from experiments with ferrets, a widely accepted animal model for influenza in humans, suggest that only a limited number of genetic changes is needed for airborne transmission of H5N1 viruses (<xref rid="bib20 bib18" ref-type="bibr">Imai et al., 2012; Herfst et al., 2012</xref>). Thus, monitoring of genetic changes, especially during human infections, and studying the relevance of such changes for human adaptation remains essential.</p><p>The molecular mechanisms that allow avian influenza viruses to cross the species barrier from birds to humans are incompletely understood. However, a prerequisite for efficient transmission of avian viruses between humans is a change from preferential recognition by the virus hemagglutinin (HA) of α2-3-sialyl-galactose-terminating host cell receptors, predominant in avian respiratory and gastrointestinal epithelia, to those terminating in α2-6-sialyl-galactose, which predominate in the human upper respiratory tract (<xref rid="bib35 bib34" ref-type="bibr">Rogers and Paulson, 1983; Rogers and D'Souza, 1989</xref>). Accordingly, HAs of the 20th century pandemic viruses (H1N1 in 1918, H2N2 in 1957 and H3N2 in 1968) evolved from their original recognition of avian α2-3-sialyl- to preferential α2-6-sialyl-receptor binding (<xref rid="bib8 bib31 bib14 bib40 bib43" ref-type="bibr">Connor et al., 1994; Matrosovich et al., 2000; Glaser et al., 2005; Stevens et al., 2006b; Tumpey et al., 2007</xref>). Thus to better understand the nature and significance of such adaptive changes, it is essential to monitor HA changes that may affect receptor specificity of avian influenza viruses, particularly during human infection.</p><p>In this study, we screened receptor-binding preferences of thirty H5N1 viruses, isolated in MDCK cells, from poultry and humans in Vietnam during 2004 and 2005, by comparing hemagglutination patterns using horse and guinea pig red blood cells (RBCs), which differ in sialic acid receptor distribution (<xref rid="bib22 bib33" ref-type="bibr">Ito et al., 1997b; Medeiros et al., 2001</xref>). We detected patterns indicative of changes in receptor specificity in three human H5N1 isolates. Our analyses of these viruses and their egg-passaged counterparts indicated a rapid emergence of adaptive receptor-binding variants of H5N1 virus, and also demonstrated that marked discrepancies can occur in quasispecies distributions between clinical specimens and cell culture- or egg-grown viruses, thus emphasizing the need for genetic monitoring directly in clinical specimens.</p></sec><sec sec-type="results" id="s0010"><title>Results</title><sec id="s0015"><title>Agglutination of horse RBCs</title><p>To screen for the receptor-binding preferences of avian and human influenza H5N1 viruses isolated in MDCK cells, we compared the relative agglutination of horse RBCs, which express predominantly α2-3-sialyl sequences (<xref rid="bib21" ref-type="bibr">Ito et al., 1997a</xref>) and guinea pig RBCs, which express both α2-3- and α2-6-sialyl sequences (<xref rid="bib33" ref-type="bibr">Medeiros et al., 2001</xref>). As predicted, seasonal human H1N1 and H3N2 influenza A viruses (<italic>n</italic>=10) did not agglutinate horse RBCs, whereas avian influenza viruses (<italic>n</italic>=15; H5N1, H4N6, H6N1) isolated from poultry agglutinated efficiently both horse and guinea pig RBCs (<xref rid="t0005" ref-type="table">Table 1</xref>). Out of 11 influenza H5N1 viruses isolated from upper respiratory tract specimens of humans, eight agglutinated efficiently both types of RBCs, similar to poultry viruses. However, two of the human H5N1 virus isolates (A/Vietnam/CL1/2004 and A/Vietnam/CL105/2005) resembled seasonal human influenza A viruses and did not agglutinate horse RBCs (<xref rid="t0005" ref-type="table">Table 1</xref>). A third isolate (A/Vietnam/CL2009C/2005) showed a 15-fold lower hemagglutination titer with horse RBCs than with guinea pig RBCs (<xref rid="t0005" ref-type="table">Table 1</xref> and Supplementary <xref rid="s0145" ref-type="fn">Table S1</xref>).

Changes in the first two viruses represented reversions to the avian H5 consensus sequence following egg passage. The consensus residue at position 151 is Ile rather than Leu.

These analyses confirmed the presence of Asp186 in the MDCK cell isolate of A/Vietnam/CL1/2004 and the reversion to Glu186 after egg passage. Surprisingly, direct pyrosequencing of viruses in clinical specimens from the nose and throat of the patient showed the presence of only Glu186, indicating that the Asp186 variant had emerged during passage in MDCK cells, but not during infection of respiratory epithelium of the patient.</p><p>Pyrosequencing also confirmed the predominance of the Phe151 variant(s) of A/Vietnam/CL2009C/2005 in the MDCK cell isolate which changed to Leu151 after egg passage. A throat specimen obtained from the patient, after 7 days of illness, contained 65% of the Phe151 variant, which increased to 100% in a sequential sample taken at day 8, at the time the specimen was taken for virus isolation in MDCK cells. Interestingly, the remaining 35% of virus quasispecies in the first specimen contained Ile at position 151, which represents the consensus residue at this position of the avian H5 sequence, and not Leu as observed in egg-passaged virus.

In one set (rVN1194-like) single amino acid substitutions, corresponding to the residues altered during egg passage, were introduced into the HA of the parental ‘wild type’ recombinant A/Vietnam/1194/2004 virus (NIBRG14, rVN1194). In the second set of viruses additional substitutions were introduced, by mutagenesis or chemical synthesis, such that the HA sequences were identical to those of the corresponding MDCK cell isolates (<xref rid="t0015" ref-type="table">Table 3</xref>).

Attempts to recover viruses possessing Phe151 in HA, in a PR8 genetic background, for receptor binding studies were unsuccessful as passage in MDCK (as well as MDCK-SIAT1) cells resulted in mixed Phe151/Leu151 populations, whereas Leu151 was selected during passage in eggs. For crystallographic studies, HA of the Phe151 variant was produced using a vaccinia virus construct.</p></sec><sec id="s0035"><title>Binding to soluble sialylglycopolymers</title><p>The effects of the mutations were analyzed by assaying the binding of soluble sialylglycopolymers (SGPs) to immobilized viruses.

There was strong binding of the 3SLN-PAA to the ‘wild type’ rVN1194, whereas binding to the four recombinant H5N1 viruses with mutations at positions 134 or 186 was significantly less avid. There was no detectable binding of this SGP to a human H3N2 virus R1, used as a control (<xref rid="f0005" ref-type="fig">Fig. 1</xref>). The low molecular mass 6SLN-PAA gave no binding to any of the H5N1 viruses, although there was binding to the human H3N2 virus R1 (data not shown). To increase the sensitivity of detection of binding of the viruses to the α2-6-sialyl sequence, we used the high molecular mass (1 MDa) 6SLN-PAA that has higher glycan valency. This SGP bound to the two recombinant viruses with a Glu186Asp mutation, although significantly less strongly than to the control human H3N2 virus R1 (<xref rid="f0005" ref-type="fig">Fig. 1</xref>); ‘wild type’ rVN1194 and the two recombinant Ala134Val mutants were not bound.</p></sec><sec id="s0040"><title>Analysis of binding specificity by biolayer interferometry</title><p>Receptor binding of the recombinant H5N1 viruses rVN1194, rVN1194(Glu186Asp) and rVN1194(Ala134Val) was analyzed by biolayer interferometry using the biotinylated SGPs 3SLN-PAA and 6SLN-PAA immobilized on streptavidin-coated biosensors. Equilibrium binding measurements were recorded at varying sugar immobilization densities at a constant virus concentration. The three viruses showed binding to 3SLN (<xref rid="f0010" ref-type="fig">Fig. 2</xref>). In this assay format, the rVN1194(Glu186Asp) mutant virus bound with a slightly lower affinity (approximately 5-fold lower) to the 3SLN than did the ‘wild type’ rVN1194 virus, whereas the rVN1194(Ala134Val) mutant virus bound with much lower (approximately 20-fold) affinity. The rVN1194(Ala134Val) mutant, like the rVN1194 virus, showed no detectable binding to 6SLN. In contrast, the rVN1194(Glu186Asp) mutant showed detectable binding to 6SLN; this was, however, approximately 50-fold weaker than to the 3SLN.</p></sec><sec id="s0045"><title>Patterns of oligosaccharide binding in carbohydrate microarray analyses</title><p>To gain insights into oligosaccharide binding specificities of the five recombinant H5N1 viruses, we performed carbohydrate microarray analyses using a diverse range of sialylated oligosaccharide sequences (<xref rid="bib7 bib27" ref-type="bibr">Childs et al., 2009; Liu et al., 2010</xref>). All five recombinant H5N1 viruses bound to numerous α2-3-sialyl sequences (<xref rid="f0015" ref-type="fig">Fig. 3</xref>, <xref rid="s0145" ref-type="fn">Supplementary Table S2</xref>). In accord with data from the other two types of SGP-binding assays, the two 134 mutant viruses, rVNCL105(Ala134Val) and rVN1194(Ala134Val), showed markedly lower intensities of binding to the α2-3-sialyl sequences compared with the ‘wild type’ rVN1194 virus, and without any detectable binding to the α2-6-sialyl sequences included in the microarray (<xref rid="f0015" ref-type="fig">Fig. 3</xref>). The 186 mutants differed from the ‘wild type’ and the 134 mutants in their ability to bind to α2-6-sialyl sequences. Interestingly, in the microarray analyses, whereby the oligosaccharide probes are presented in a highly clustered state on the solid surface, no reduction was apparent in binding intensities to the α2-3-sialyl sequences by the 186 mutants compared with the ‘wild type’ virus. The reassortant human H3N2 virus, X31, included as an example of virus with HA well-adapted to humans showed, as predicted, preferential binding to α2-6- over α2-3-sialyl sequences.</p><p>The four mutant H5N1 viruses resembled the rVN1194 virus in showing high relative binding to the α2-3-sialyl bi-antennary N-glycan (probe ♯61). The multi-antennary α2-3-sialyl N-glycans with or without poly-N-acetyllactosamine extensions were also bound with varying intensities (♯62–♯65). To assist close comparisons of the binding intensities of the five recombinant H5N1 viruses and X31, results are presented in <xref rid="t0020" ref-type="table">Table 4</xref> for 24 of the sialyl probes that are well matched with respect to backbone sequences, substituents, and aglycones. The 134 mutant viruses showed little or no binding to the α2-3-sialyl sequences, di- and tetra-saccharides of the lacto (type I) or neolacto (type II) series, that lacked fucosylation or sulphation (♯23, ♯25, ♯39, ♯40 and ♯41), whereas the 186 mutants resembled the rVN1194 virus in giving binding signals with these probes. Binding signals were diminished with fucosylation at the penultimate N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) of type I (♯26 vs. ♯23; ♯47 vs. ♯39/LSTa) and type II sequences (♯27 vs. ♯25/3SLN; ♯58 vs. ♯59). On the other hand, probes with sulphation at the penultimate GlcNAc, as on the trisulphated keratan sulfate (♯46) and fucosylated 6-sulpho-sialyl-Lewis x (Le<sup>x</sup>) (♯55), elicited binding with all five H5N1 viruses. Interestingly, the presence of another acidic residue, α2-6-linked sialic acid, at the penultimate GlcNAc also elicited relatively strong binding intensities with ‘wild type’ and mutant viruses (♯107 vs. ♯39). In contrast, sulphation at the terminal galactose, as in the sulphated sialyl-Le<sup>x</sup> (♯53 and ♯57) elicited binding only with the 186 mutants. The preference of ‘wild type’ and mutant H5N1 viruses for α2-3-sialyl glycans with sulfate or sialic acid on the 6 position of the penultimate GlcNAc residue and their reduced binding to glycans that are fucosylated at this residue is in agreement with findings from previous microarray studies with recombinant HAs of A/Vietnam/1203/2004 (<xref rid="bib39" ref-type="bibr">Stevens et al., 2006a</xref>) and the H5 consensus sequence (<xref rid="bib13 bib44" ref-type="bibr">Gambaryan et al., 2004; Wang et al., 2009</xref>).</p><p>The binding of the two 186 mutants to the biantennary α2-6-sialyl N-glycan (probe ♯98) was less intense than to the α2-3-sialyl analog (♯61), in contrast to X-31. Moreover, the 186 mutants showed little or no binding to many of the α2-6-sialyl sequences bound by X-31, including the trisaccharide probe 6SLN (♯87) and the pentasaccharide probe LSTc (♯90). In contrast to the rVN1194 virus, the 186 mutants, exhibited binding to α2-8-polysialyl sequences (♯122 and ♯123), although this was weaker than that of X31.</p><p>In sum, the salient changes observed in the microarray analyses were: first, an overall decrease of α2-3-sialyl binding by the 134 mutants compared with the ‘wild type’ virus while retaining binding to bi- and multiantennary α2-3-sialyl N-glycans and 6-sulphated sequences, but without any detectable α2-6-sialyl binding; and second, the binding of the 186 mutants to the bi-antennary α2-6-sialyl N-glycan but without any apparent reduction in binding to α2-3-sialyl sequences.</p></sec><sec id="s0050"><title>Crystallographic studies</title><p>The effects of the single amino acid substitutions in the HA on receptor binding were also studied by X-ray crystallography of HAs in complex with pentasaccharides possessing terminal sialic acid (Sia) linked to galactose (Gal) by either α2-3 (LSTa) or α2-6 (LSTc) linkage.</p><p>In the wild type H5 HA complex with the avian receptor analog LSTa, the first three residues, Sia-1, Gal-2, GlcNAc-3 were detected (<xref rid="bib15" ref-type="bibr">Ha et al., 2001</xref>) but in the Glu186Asp complex only Sia-1 and Gal-2 could be seen (<xref rid="f0020" ref-type="fig">Fig. 4</xref>A). This suggests lower affinity of the 186 mutant for the α2-3 sequence. In the wild type HA, Glu186 forms a H-bond with the 9-OH of Sia-1 (<xref rid="bib15" ref-type="bibr">Ha et al., 2001</xref>). The carboxylate of Asp186 in the mutant is not as close to the 9-OH and as a consequence, the interaction is less tight. The complexes of wild type and Glu186Asp mutant HAs with LSTc showed similar features and indicate only weak binding (<xref rid="f0020" ref-type="fig">Fig. 4</xref>B). In both structures, there was clear electron density for only Sia-1, the 2-6-linkage atoms, and two or three additional atoms of Gal-2.</p><p>Introduction of a more bulky Val134 side-chain in the mutant, in place of the highly conserved Ala134 in wild type HA, increases the width of the hydrophobic channel between the 130- and 220-loops that form the front and left edges of the receptor-binding site (<xref rid="f0020" ref-type="fig">Fig. 4</xref>C). As a consequence, the H-bond between Gln222 and Ser132 is not formed in the mutant. The distances between Gln222 and the glycosidic-linkage O and between Gln222 and the 4-OH of Gal-2 are also slightly increased; as a consequence, the H-bonds formed between Gln222 and LSTa are weaker and Gal-2 was not readily discernible. In the Ala134Val mutant–LSTc complex, only Sia-1 was detected, suggesting slightly weaker binding of the human receptor analog (LSTc), than to the wild type HA (<xref rid="f0020" ref-type="fig">Fig. 4</xref>D). These observations are consistent with the comparative binding data obtained with the wild type H5 and the Glu186Asp and Ala134Val mutant recombinant viruses.</p><p>Sialic acid was not detected in crystals of the Ile151Phe mutant HA soaked in either LSTa or LSTc receptor analogs. Comparison of the wild type and mutant HAs indicates that the side-chain of Phe151 projects into the receptor binding site about 2 Å further than Ile151 (<xref rid="f0020" ref-type="fig">Fig. 4</xref>E). This may restrict receptor binding and consequently impair virus replication.</p></sec></sec><sec sec-type="discussion" id="s0055"><title>Discussion</title><p>Changes in the receptor binding characteristics were detected in three of eleven MDCK cell-grown viruses, isolated from upper respiratory tract specimens of influenza H5N1 infected patients, and none of 13H5N1 viruses isolated from poultry. Single amino acid substitutions responsible for the receptor binding changes were identified. Two of the substitutions, Ala134Val and Ile151Phe, were also observed in sequences in the clinical samples from which the isolates were derived, albeit in differing proportions of virus quasispecies compared to MDCK cell isolates, and were therefore likely selected during human infection. In contrast, the Glu186Asp substitution was not detected in the sequence of the clinical specimen and therefore most likely emerged during isolation in MDCK cells, although the presence in the clinical specimen of a minority population below the detection limit of the pyrosequencing method and subsequent selection in cell culture cannot be ruled out.</p><p>These observations indicate that H5N1 variants with changing patterns of receptor recognition may rapidly emerge during human H5N1 infections and that further selection of variants in culture systems occurs which may obscure actual evolutionary events during human infection. Precise insights into the effects of observed HA substitutions on receptor recognition are essential to fully understand the evolutionary pathways towards human adaptation of H5N1 viruses, which we addressed using several approaches.</p><p>Detailed analyses of the binding properties of the recombinant viruses containing the Ala134Val substitution, observed in virus isolated from a fatal case of H5N1 infection after 4 days of illness, showed consistently that binding to α2-3-sialyl sequences was reduced, but with no detectable increase in binding to the repertoire of α2-6-sialyl sequences examined. The dominant effect of the single 134 substitution was confirmed by the similarity in the binding profiles of the virus with the single substitution and of the virus with the additional 4 substitutions corresponding to the sequence of the MDCK cell isolate. Proportions of 134Val variants were higher in the clinical specimens when compared to the virus isolate (74% vs. 52%), suggesting some reversion to wild-type sequence during culture in α2,3 sialyl-receptor containing MDCK cells. Repeated identification of the Ala134Val substitution in clade 1 human H5N1 isolates (<xref rid="bib1 bib25" ref-type="bibr">Auewarakul et al., 2007; Li et al., 2004</xref>), but not in contemporary clade 1 viruses isolated from birds, emphasizes its potential significance in human infection. A previous report identified the presence of two HA mutations, Ala134Val plus Leu129Val in H5N1 virus from another fatal case in Thailand, which resulted in reduced binding to α2-3-sialyl receptors, but also increased binding to α2-6-sialyl receptors (<xref rid="bib1" ref-type="bibr">Auewarakul et al., 2007</xref>). Although the Leu129Val substitution alone did not alter the relative binding to the two types of receptor, the effect of the single Ala134Val substitution without the Leu129Val was not described in that report. <xref rid="bib41" ref-type="bibr">Tang et al. (2012)</xref> recently reported that an Ala134Val substitution in the HA, of a H5N1 isolate from a fatal case in Cambodia, was responsible for reduced binding of HA to MDCK cells and a reduced capacity to agglutinate horse RBCs. In the present instance, no evidence was obtained regarding the possibility that other mutations in HA or other genes within the mixed virus population might complement the properties of the single 134 mutant.</p><p>The crystallographic structure of the HA–receptor complexes provided an explanation for the poor receptor binding by the Ala134Val mutant HA, namely that distortion of the binding site by the bulkier valine residue would potentially cause a reduction in the strength of H-bonds between receptor and binding site. The consequent increased width of the site is more akin to that of human H3 (and H9) viruses with their preference for α2-6-sialyl receptors. Whether such changes to the binding site result in improved binding to natural receptors cannot be assessed in the absence of more detailed information as to their identity.</p><p>The emergence of the Ile151Phe variant was observed between days 5 and 8 of illness in a patient who ultimately succumbed to infection with an oseltamivir-resistant virus (<xref rid="bib42" ref-type="bibr">Tran et al., 2004</xref>). The 151Phe variant comprised 65% of the virus population on day 7, increasing to 100% in the clinical specimen from which the MDCK cell isolate was derived on day 8. Unfortunately, recombinant virus containing this substitution could not be propagated in either MDCK cells or eggs, preventing comparable receptor binding analyses. Soaking crystals of the Ile151Phe HA, prepared by vaccinia virus expression, with either the α2-3- or α2-6-sialyl pentasaccharide failed to yield any evidence of ligand binding. The structure of the mutant HA shows that the larger Phe side chain projects further into the binding site such that it may restrict binding. It would appear that this mutation is only advantageous in the presence of compensatory mutations in HA or other genes. In this respect, the possible role of other HA substitutions in this virus relative to VN1194 HA, including Ser133Ala, Leu175Met and Thr188Ala, deserves further research. No other instance of an Ile151Phe substitution in the HA of H5N1 viruses has been reported. However, substitution at this position by threonine (the residue present in human H3 viruses) has been observed in a number of human and avian clade 2.2 viruses isolated between 2004 and 2008, and has become a common feature of a subclade (B1) of Egyptian clade 2.2.1 avian and human viruses since 2009. Although the single Ile151Thr substitution did not affect receptor binding, it was observed to act synergistically with a deletion in residue 129 (also typical of this sublineage) to increase α2-6-sialyl binding (<xref rid="bib45" ref-type="bibr">Watanabe et al., 2011</xref>).</p><p>The Glu186Asp substitution, observed in an MDCK cell-grown virus (but not in the clinical specimen) isolated from a patient who survived the infection, did not markedly alter binding of virus to α2-3-sialyl receptors, in terms of the intensity and spectrum of sequences bound, in the microarray analyses where the oligosaccharide probes are presented in a clustered state, or to immobilized 3SLN-PAA by biolayer interferometry. However, in the third assay procedure with sialoglycopolymer binding to immobilized virus, the Glu186Asp substitution caused a considerable reduction in binding of the low molecular weight trisaccharide 3SLN polymer. This is consistent with poor resolution of the α2-3-sialyl tetrasaccharide, LSTa, in crystals of the HA(Glu186Asp)–LSTa complex. These assay systems using soluble low molecular weight sialoglycopolymer binding to ‘immobilized’ HA thus appear more sensitive in detecting a decrease in affinity for α2-3-sialyl glycans.</p><p>A significant change relative to the ‘wild-type’ virus was observed in the binding of the Glu186Asp mutants to α2-6-sialyl sequences in all three types of binding assay. Binding was, however, still less intense than to α2-3-sialyl analogs and relatively poor compared to that of the human H3 virus X31. This was also reflected by the poor resolution of moieties other than the terminal sialic acid in the HA(Glu186Asp)–LSTc complex.</p><p>Glu186 is highly conserved, with no substitutions detected among avian or human H5N1 viruses except A/Vietnam/CL1/2004. While the presence of an undetectable minority population cannot be excluded, the absence of 186Asp variants in the clinical specimen as measured by pyrosequencing, strongly suggests that this substitution emerged during MDCK cell culture and illustrates the differences in selective pressures encountered in vitro and in vivo. At any rate, our observations indicate that α2-6-sialyl binding H5N1 variants can emerge during replication in mammalian cells containing these receptors.</p><p>The reduction in binding of α2-3-sialyl sequences by the Ala134Val mutant and indication of the same for the Ile151Phe and Glu186Asp mutants is consistent with their loss of ability to agglutinate horse RBCs, which was readily restored on reversion of the mutation on passage (in an avian environment) in eggs. In contrast, there was little discernible effect on agglutination of guinea pig RBCs by the Ala134Val substitution despite weak binding to the α2-6-sialyl sequences included in this study. Although these features suggest specific adaptive evolutionary events in vivo, the significance of the selection of such a phenotype, with reduced binding to avian receptors in the absence of increased preference for human receptors, is not immediately apparent. The microarray encompasses a considerable repertoire of α2-6-sialyl sequences; however, there may be other ‘human-type’ receptor sequences in the respiratory tract that are recognized by the mutant hemagglutinins. Alternatively, the reduced binding to avian receptors may correspond to a phenotype intermediate in adaptation to more human-like characteristics. For example, reduced α2-3-sialyl binding may benefit efficient viral replication in humans by evading the inhibitory effects of α2-3-sialyl glycans present in mucins in the human respiratory tract (<xref rid="bib28" ref-type="bibr">Manz et al., 2010</xref>). Thus, adaptive evolution of avian influenza H5N1 viruses to efficient binding of human receptors may be a more complex multistep process (<xref rid="bib6" ref-type="bibr">Chen et al., 2012</xref>). In this respect, it should be noted that the recently reported passage studies in ferrets, which showed that only a limited number of amino acid changes is needed for air-borne transmission of H5N1 viruses, used genetically engineered virus already containing two changes that confer increased α2-6-sialyl binding (<xref rid="bib20 bib18" ref-type="bibr">Imai et al., 2012; Herfst et al., 2012</xref>), changes which did not emerge during passage in ferrets of wild-type viruses. Transmission of the VN1194 mutant was associated with a substantial reduction in affinity for avian α2-3-sialyl receptors and only a slight increase in affinity for human α2-6-sialyl receptors, and <xref rid="bib48" ref-type="bibr">Xiong et al. (2013)</xref> emphasized the importance of the ratio of preference for the two receptors in determining the biological characteristics. Of note, in addition to the changes in HA that alter receptor specificity, the three human H5N1 viruses investigated (A/Vietnam/CL1/2004, A/Vietnam/CL105/2005, and A/Vietnam/CL2009C/2005) possessed a Glu627Lys change in PB2 (<xref rid="bib10" ref-type="bibr">de Jong et al., 2006</xref>), the role of which in mammalian adaptation of highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses is well established (<xref rid="bib17 bib23 bib36 bib38" ref-type="bibr">Hatta et al., 2001; Le et al., 2009; Shinya et al., 2004; Steel et al., 2009</xref>).

(B) Superposition of complexes of LSTc with rVN1194 HA (gray) and with rVN1194(Glu186Asp) HA (green). Only density for the Sia-1 of the receptor analog was detected. (C) Superposition of complexes of LSTa with rVN1194 HA (gray) and with rVN1194(Ala134Val) HA (yellow). The increase in width of the hydrophobic channel between the 130 and 220 loops in the mutant that results in an increase in the distance between Gln222 and Ser132 is shown. (D) Superposition of complexes of LSTc with rVN1194 HA (gray) and with rVN1194(Ala134Val) HA (yellow). Only density for the Sia-1 of the receptor analog was detected. E, Superposition of the complex of rVN1194 HA with LSTc (gray) and rVN1194(Ile151Phe) HA (blue). Although no sialic acid was detected in the Ile151Phe crystals soaked in LSTc the proximity of Phe 151 to where the sialic acid would be located is shown.</p></caption><graphic xlink:href="gr4"></graphic></fig><table-wrap id="t0005" position="float"><label>Table 1</label><caption><p>Hemagglutination titers of MDCK cell- and egg-cultured Influenza A viruses.</p></caption><table frame="hsides" rules="groups"><thead><tr><th><bold>Virus</bold></th><th><bold>Subtype</bold></th><th><bold>Origin</bold></th><th colspan="2"><bold>MDCK GMT</bold><xref rid="tbl1fna" ref-type="table-fn">a</xref><hr></hr></th><th colspan="2"><bold>ω5 GMT</bold><xref rid="tbl1fna" ref-type="table-fn">a</xref><hr></hr></th></tr><tr><th></th><th></th><th></th><th><bold>Horse</bold></th><th><bold>Guinea pig</bold></th><th><bold>Horse</bold></th><th><bold>Guinea pig</bold></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td align="char">A/VN/HTD33/04</td><td>H1N1</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">0</td><td align="char">75</td><td>0</td><td>24</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VN/HTD34/04</td><td>H1N1</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">0</td><td align="char">192</td><td>0</td><td>32</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VN/HTD566/04</td><td>H3N2</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">0</td><td align="char">53</td><td>0</td><td>4</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VN/HTD567/04</td><td>H3N2</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">0</td><td align="char">21</td><td>0</td><td>8</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/Ck/VLC13/06</td><td>H5N1</td><td>Chicken</td><td align="char">267</td><td align="char">144</td><td>12</td><td>32</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/Ck/VLC15/06</td><td>H5N1</td><td>Chicken</td><td align="char">491</td><td align="char">416</td><td>64</td><td>24</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/Dk/LAD404/06</td><td>H4N6</td><td>Duck</td><td align="char">341</td><td align="char">352</td><td>48</td><td>128</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/Dk/DTD516/06</td><td>H6N1</td><td>Duck</td><td align="char">224</td><td align="char">160</td><td>32</td><td>32</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VN/CL1/04</td><td>H5N1</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">0</td><td align="char">100</td><td>512</td><td>192</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VN/CL2/04</td><td>H5N1</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">52</td><td align="char">72</td><td>64</td><td>48</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VNCL26/04</td><td>H5N1</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">64</td><td align="char">192</td><td>256</td><td>192</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VN/CL36/04</td><td>H5N1</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">64</td><td align="char">68</td><td>64</td><td>64</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VN/PEV016/04</td><td>H5N1</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">32</td><td align="char">44</td><td>128</td><td>96</td></tr><tr><td align="char">A/VN/CL100/05</td><td>H5N1</td><td>Human</td><td align="char">112</td><td align="char">352</td><td>192</td><td>384</td></tr><tr><td colspan="7">
