Maintaining pH-dependent conformational flexibility of M1 is critical for efficient influenza A virus replication

The M gene segment of influenza A virus has been shown to be a contributing factor to the high growth phenotype.However, it remains largely unknown why matrix Locomotive protein 1 (M1), the major structural protein encoded by M gene, exhibits pH-dependent conformational changes during virus replication.Understanding the mechanisms underlying effici
