Description
Explore this beautiful and accurate panoramic poster by scientist, author and artist David Goodsell, Ph.D., to learn how our bodies battle Influenza virus infections. Students engage with key proteins and cell structures while investigating an infection when antibodies are present, and when they are not, including:
- Infection of the ciliated epithelial cells of our upper respiratory tract
- Virus neutralization by antibodies in the mucosal barrier
- In the absence of antibodies, how the virus binds in the cell membrane
- Virus fusion with the endosomal membrane
- Release of segmented viral RNA into the cytoplasm
