NA proteins can arise from the exchange of genetic material (reassortment) between the avian influenza gene pool and human influenza genes during co-infection (Tamura and Kurata, 2004) or adaptive mutation. Such a change is termed as ‘‘antigenic shift’’ and since the population has typically limited o ...
