A structure and knowledge-based combinatorial approach to engineering universal scFv antibodies against influenza M2 protein

Abstract Background The influenza virus enters the host via hemagglutinin protein binding to cell surface sialic acid. Receptor-mediated endocytosis is followed by viral nucleocapsid uncoating for replication aided by the transmembrane viral M2 proton ion channel. M2 ectodomain (M2e) is a potential...
