Neuraminidase (NA) protein, a Quick View

The flu NA (neuraminidase) protein is crucial because it plays a key role in the influenza virus's ability to infect host cells and spread within the body. It helps the virus to release newly formed viral particles from infected cells, facilitating the spread of the infection. As such, it's a key target for antiviral drugs and vaccine development, helping in controlling and preventing flu outbreaks.
