Shedding of the ectodomain (soluble extracellular part of the protein) of GPI-anchored proteins has been described as an important post-translational mechanism involved in adhesion and cell signaling ...

As one of the main influenza antigens, neuraminidase (NA) in H3N2 virus has evolved extensively for more than 50 years due to continuous immune pressure. While NA has recently emerged as an effective ...
