Influenza viruses of contrasting receptor specificity have been examined for their ability to infect receptor-modified MDCK cells containing sialyloligosaccharide receptor determinants of defined sequence. Cells were treated with sialidase to remove sialic acid and render then resistant to infection and were then incubated with sialyltransferase and CMP-sialic acid to restore sialic acid in the SA.alpha.2,6Gal or SA.alpha.2,3Gal linkages. The viruses A/RI/5+/57 and A/duck/Ukraine/1/63, previously shown to exhibit preferential binding of SA.alpha.2,6Gal and SA.alpha.2,3Gal linkages, respectively were found to exhibit differential infection of the receptor-modified cells in accord with their receptor specificity. Coinfection of SA.alpha.2,3Gal derivatized cells with a mixture of the two viruses resulted in selective propagation of the SA.alpha.2,3Gal-specific A/duck/Ukraine/1/63 virus. The results demonstrate the potential for cell surface receptors to mediate selection of receptor-specific variants of influenza virus.
