Daher konnten wir @kciminski.bsky.social, Gruppenleiter an der Universität Freiburg, der H5N1 und Influenza Viren in Fledermäusen erforscht, und @njhalwe.bsky.social, PostDoc in der Diagnostik am Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut, der sich mit H5N1 Infektionen in Tieren befasst, ein paar Fragen stellen:

However: reassortment with human-adapted influenza A viruses allows avian viruses to escape MxA restriction in vitro. Also, because the bovine Mx1 protein is antivirally active, continued circulation in cattle could lead to MxA adaptation.

Good news: H5N1 viruses isolated from mammals are inhibited by the human factor MxA.
