• Asian flu, 1957• Hong Kong flu, 1968
• Seasonal flu: every year– Vaccine designed based on the observation of the
flu strains spreading in animals

Recognition of the virus to the host cell:
hemagglutinin (H protein) vs. glycans • On the surface of animal cells,
there exist a heavy coat of glycans (sugars linked to proteins or lipids);
• Different animals may have glycans of different structures;– Human, pig and birds
• Different influenza virus strains with different hemagglutinin proteins (a class of glycan binding protein) recognize glycans of different structures
![Page 15: How does influenza virus jump from animals to humans? Haixu Tang School of Informatics and Computing Indiana University, Bloomington](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/55163f31550346a2308b65d1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Structure of glycans
monosaccharide
linkage
![Page 16: How does influenza virus jump from animals to humans? Haixu Tang School of Informatics and Computing Indiana University, Bloomington](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/55163f31550346a2308b65d1/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Some basic graph theory
• Graph: modeling pairwise relation (edges) between subjects (nodes or vertices)
• Tree: a graph with no cycle– Each node in a tree has zero (leaves) or more child nodes– Subtree: a subset of nodes/edge
• Labels– Nodes: monosaccharides– Edges: linkage types
![Page 17: How does influenza virus jump from animals to humans? Haixu Tang School of Informatics and Computing Indiana University, Bloomington](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/55163f31550346a2308b65d1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Animal glycans
![Page 18: How does influenza virus jump from animals to humans? Haixu Tang School of Informatics and Computing Indiana University, Bloomington](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/55163f31550346a2308b65d1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Hemagglutinins recognize sialylated glycans
• Human cells mainly express 2-6 linked sialylated glycans;
• Bird cells mainly express 2-3 linked sialylated glycans;
• Pig cells express both.
Vessel theory
![Page 19: How does influenza virus jump from animals to humans? Haixu Tang School of Informatics and Computing Indiana University, Bloomington](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/55163f31550346a2308b65d1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Hemagglutinin-glycan interaction is more complicated
• Several influenza strains were observed to be inconsistent with the theory– AV18 strain has hemagglutinin proteins recognize
specifically 2-3 linked glycans, but are not transmissable in birds;
– NY18 and Tx91 strains recognize both 2-3 and 2-6 linked glycans, but NY18 does not transmit efficiently in human population, whereas Tx91 does;
– Some chimeric H1N1 strains with high binding affinity to 2-6 linked glycans, but do not spread efficiently in human and pig.

The glycan motif finding problem
![Page 21: How does influenza virus jump from animals to humans? Haixu Tang School of Informatics and Computing Indiana University, Bloomington](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062619/55163f31550346a2308b65d1/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The glycan motif finding problem
• Input: a set of (glycan) trees that are found to be recognized by a glycan binding protein (e.g. hemagglutinin)
• Output: a l-treelet that is over-represented in the input set
• l-treelet: a tree of a fixed small size l (e.g. l=4).• Over-representation: number of trees in the input
set containing the treelet is much higher than the expected number in a random set of trees

The glycan motif finding problemA different formulation
• Input: a positive set of (glycan) trees that are found to be recognized by a glycan binding protein (e.g. hemagglutinin) and a negative set of glycan trees that are found NOT to be recognized by the same protein
• Output: a l-treelet that is over-represented in the input positive set than the negative set
• Over-representation: number of trees in the positive set containing the treelet is much higher than the number of trees in the negative set

Glycan patterns found to be recognized by hemagglutinin
• R. Sasisekharan and colleagues show is the pattern recognized by human influenza hemagglutinin, but not recognized by avian influenza hemagglutinin;
• 2-6 linked sialylated glycans with long oligosaccharide branch (with multiple lactosamine repeats) are predominantly expressed in the human upper respratory epithelial cells
• Indeed, the binding specificity of hemagglutinin to 2-6 linked sialylated glycans is not sufficient for the spread of the influenza viruses in human populations.
