Visit PDB-101 to learn how to explore Influenza A H5N1 virus protein structures using RCSB.org tools.

Viruses represent major threats to global health. Historically, pandemics of influenza, polio, smallpox, and many other viruses have spread through populations numerous times, killing and maiming millions of individuals. Outbreaks of influenza A H5N1 are hitting poultry and dairy farms across the nation, with impact on the economy and public health.

After watching the videos featured in this course, you will be able to

  • Understand the basics of influenza A H5N1 virus
  • Identify influenza-related PDB structures and Computed Structure Models for research
  • Learn how to align structures for analysis
  • Search the PDB archive by structural motif
  • Gain hands-on experience using RCSB.org tools

This webinar is accompanied by
