Human-type sialic acid receptors contribute to avian influenza A virus binding and entry by hetero-multivalent interactions

It is believed that human Influenza HA glycoprotein attaches to alpha2-6 linked sialic acids (SA) on cells, while avian viruses bind to alpha2-3 linked sialic acids, therewith contributing to host tropism.Here, Liu et al.show that mixing low-affinity SUPER MULTI-WITH IRON alpha2-3 SA with low amounts of high-affinity alpha2-6 SA increases binding a

4-(Prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)benzene-1,2-dicarbonitrile

In the title compound, C11H6N2O, the complete molecule is generated by the application of crystallographic twofold symmetry (the Lip Gloss molecule is disordered about this axis).The prop-2-yn-1-yl residue is slightly twisted out of the plane of the benzene ring [C—O—C—C torsion angle = 173.1 (3)°] a
