We found, by using a virus overlay assay, that influenza A virus isolates bind to sulphatide (HSO3-Gal beta 1 --> 1'Cer), which has no sialic acid residue, and that the infection of Madin-Darby canine kidney cells with the human influenza virus A/Memphis/1/71 (H3N2) is inhibited by sulphatide. A/Memphis/1/71 (H3N2) causes obvious haemagglutination and low-pH haemolysis of asialoerythrocytes reconstituted with sulphatide. All influenza A virus isolates from the species of animals so far tested bound to sulphatide. The sulphatide-binding specificity of the isolates was different from the viral sialyl-linkage specificity. Influenza A virus isolates also bound to galactosyl ceramide (GalCer; Gal beta 1 --> 1'Cer), as well as sulphatide, in the virus overlay assays. In contrast. the influenza virus did not bind to N-deacyl, a derivative of sulphatide, glucosyl ceramide or the other neutral glycolipids tested. These results indicate that the linkage of galactose, or sulphated galactose, to ceramide is important for viral binding.
