Influenza neuraminidase is a glycoprotein in the influenza virus membrane. Before an infected cell can release the virus into its surroundings to infect new cells, neuraminidase must cleave sialic acid from both virus and cellular glycoproteins. Neuraminidase is a homotetramer -- here we will examine only one monomer. | Influenza neuraminidase is a glycoprotein in the influenza virus membrane.
