Glycan receptor specificity as a useful tool for characterization and surveillance of influenza A virus

Highlights • Glycan topology beyond terminal linkage clearly demarcates hemagglutinin (HA)–glycan receptor interactions. • Pandemic virus HAs share characteristic biochemical and physiological receptor binding. • Hallmark mutations in naturally evolving avian HAs led to very different receptor bindi...
