The HA gene. It encodes the hemagglutinin, which helps virus bind toepithelial cells. 3 distinct hemagglutinins, H1, H2, and H3) are found inhuman infections; 13 others have been found in animal flu viruses.2. The NA gene. It encodes the neuraminidase, which helps virus bud offplasma membrane. 2 different neuraminidases (N1 and N2) havebeen found in human viruses; 7 others in other animals.Two of the RNA molecules encode:Slide 12 - 5/9/07 Genome: 8 different RNA
