[Comparative characteristics of hemagglutinins of influenza A viruses with antigenic structure Hsw1N1 isolated from man and animals].

Competitive radioimmunoassay was used to study the antigenic composition of hemagglutinin of Hsw1N1 viruses isolated from man in comparison with hemagglutinin Hsw1 of influenza virus of swine and ducks. The data of oligonucleotide analysis of the 4th RNA segment coding for hemagglutinin in these viruses are presented. It has been shown that in Alma-Ata, 1984-1985, influenza viruses Hsw1N1 were isolated with the antigenic structure of hemagglutinin and with the hemagglutinin gene identical with those of the classical influenza virus of swine A/Swine/Iowa/15/30 but differing from virus A/New Jersey/8/76.
