Type A flu is the most common type of influenza. Type A influenza symptoms include respiratory symptoms like coughing and sneezing and a runny nose, as well as influenza symptoms like headache, muscle aches, and fever. Flu symptoms are similar to the symptoms of a cold, but fever is rare with a cold and common with the flu.
Influenza is a lipid-enveloped, pleomorphic virus. We combine electron cryotomography and analysis of images of frozen-hydrated virions to determine the structural organization of filamentous influenza A virus. Influenza A/Udorn/72 virions are capsule-shaped or filamentous particles of highly uniform diameter.n the present study, we investigate the structural basis for filamentous morphology in influenza virus. Filamentous morphology is typical of clinical isolates of influenza virus, whereas a spherical morphology is observed in many laboratory-passaged influenza strains (18, 19).
