Low Polymerase Activity Attributed to PA Drives the Acquisition of the PB2 E627K Mutation of H7N9 Avian Influenza Virus in Mammals

ABSTRACT Avian influenza viruses (AIVs) must acquire mammalian-adaptive mutations before they can efficiently replicate in and transmit among humans. The PB2 E627K mutation is known to play a prominent role in the mammalian adaptation of AIVs. The H7N9 AIVs that emerged in 2013 in China easily acqui...
