A new vaccine from Duke helps the immune system target the stalk of the hemagglutinin protein, rather than its top. view more . Credit: U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
For decades, researchers have sought out strategies to circumvent the rapid incessant evolution of flu strains. These strategies have varied from focusing on neuraminidase, to using stalk ...
The stalk, by comparison, changes much less. “A number of groups have gone through and experimentally mutagenized the whole hemagglutinin and asked ‘which areas can change and still allow the ...

A protein on the surface of influenza viruses, hemagglutinin, shepherds the virus into host cells. Hemagglutinin is comprised of a 'head' (variable) and a 'stalk' (varies less from strain to strain).
Researchers have designed experimental influenza vaccines to be more universal, spurring the body to create antibodies against the less-variable stalk region of HA, which extends like a stem ...
