Source : Baculovirus Insect Cells. Recombinant Full-Length H5N1 A/Indonesia/05/2005 is glycosylated with N-linked sugars, produced using baculovirus vectors in insect cells. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 is a subtype of the Influenza A virus. Subtype H5N1 is commonly known as avian influenzaor bird flu.
