Background and Objectives: Influenza A/H1N1pdm09 causes respiratory illness and remains a concern for public health. Since its first emergence in 2009, the virus has been continuously circulating in the form of its genetic variants. Influenza A/ H1N1pdm09 surveillance is essential for uncovering emerging variants of epidemiologic and vaccine efficacy. The present study attempts in silico analysis and molecular characterization of Influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 virus circulating and causing major outbreaks in central India during 2009-2019. Materials and Methods: We have investigated the antigenic drift analysis of 96 isolates’ hemagglutinin (HA) gene sequences (59 central Indian and 37 local Indian and 28 global reference HA gene sequences) of Influenza A/H1N1pdm09 viruses from 2009 to 2019. The study includes mutational (Multiple sequence Alignment), phylogenetic (Maximum Likelihood Method), and statistical analysis (Covariance and correlation) of HA sequences submitted in NCBI, IRD and GISAID from central India. Results: Phylogenetic analysis indicated maximum clustering of central Indian HA gene sequences in genogroup 6B. Analysis of amino acid sequence alignment revealed changes in receptor binding site (RBS). The frequency of S220T amino acid substitution was found to be high followed by S202T, K300E A273T, K180Q. The Karl Pearson correlation coefficient (r) and covariance between the number of mutations and the death toll was found +0.246 and +100.3 respectively. Conclusion: The study identifies the continuous genetic variations in the HA gene sequences of circulating Influenza A/ H1N1pdm09 in central India from the year 2009 to 2019. Further suggesting importance of monitoring the gradual evolution of the virus with regards to an increase in virulence, pathogenicity and vaccine efficacy timely.

Background Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus entered the human population in 2009 and evolved within this population for more than ten years. Despite genetic evolution no remarkable changes in the antigenic reactive pattern of these viruses were observed so far. Methods Primary respiratory samples of the German influenza virological sentinel were investigated by qPCR. Influenza virus-positive samples were characterized genetically and antigenetically. Results In December 2019, a antigenic drift variant characterized by an N156K substitution in the hemagglutinin of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus emerged in Germany, which exhibited a reactivity to ferret antiserum that was an average 6 log2 lower than the vaccine virus A/Brisbane/02/2018 and the other A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses circulating in the influenza season 2019-2020. These viruses accounted for 20% of all A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses characterized in the German influenza sentinel. Patients infected with these viruses had a shorter median time period of medical consultation after onset of symptoms and were more frequently treated with neuraminidase inhibitors in comparison to patients infected with other A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses. Conclusions This parallel circulation of two antigenic variants of A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses which differ remarkably in their antigenic reactive pattern contributes to a greater variability in circulating influenza viruses and challenges vaccination.
