Since their introduction during the 1968 pandemic, H3N2 viruses have evolved over the past five decades to preferentially recognize human alpha2-6-sialoside receptors that are elongated through addition of poly-LacNAc. We show that more recent H3N2 viruses now make increasingly complex interactions with elongated receptors while continuously selecting for strains maintaining this phenotype. This change in receptor engagement is accompanied by an extension of the traditional receptor-binding site to include residues in key antigenic sites on the surface of HA trimers. These results help explain the propensity for selection of antigenic variants, leading to vaccine mismatching, when H3N2 viruses are propagated in chicken eggs or cells that do not contain such receptors. Evolution of human H3N2 influenza virus receptor specificity has substantially expanded the receptor-binding domain site.,Thompson AJ, Wu NC, Canales A, Kikuchi C, Zhu X, de Toro BF, Canada FJ, Worth C, Wang S, McBride R, Peng W, Nycholat CM, Jimenez-Barbero J, Wilson IA, Paulson JC Cell Host Microbe. 2024 Feb 14;32(2):261-275.e4. doi: 10.1016/j.chom.2024.01.003. , Epub 2024 Feb 1.
