The hemagglutinin (HA) protein attaches viral particles to host cells by binding to sialic acid-containing receptors and induces viral particle internalization through clathrin-dependent endocytosis. HA also promotes an alternative clathrin- and caveolin-independent pathway for some virions. HA/Hemagglutinin Protein, H5N8 (EPI547678, sf9, His) is the recombinant Virus-derived HA/Hemagglutinin protein, expressed by Sf9 insect cells , with C-His labeled tag.
