To detect the presence of the influenza A virus quickly, researchers created a fluorogenic probe that could bind to the promoter region. A fluorogenic probe employs fluorophores, which are tiny molecules that emit light when a specific target is present.
The influenza A virus, which causes seasonal flu outbreaks, is also the only influenza virus that has previously caused pandemic flu outbreaks. This makes influenza A an important research topic, as the seasonal flu kills between 290,000 and 650,000 people worldwide each year. The influenza A virus is difficult to detect, treat, and immunize against because it is constantly changing, or mutating. Researchers are looking for parts of the influenza virus that do not change when the virus mutates to solve this problem. The promoter region or promoter, a panhandle structure on the virus, has emerged as a potential target.
