...Medical Research (nimr) in London, which is home to the World Influenza Centre, analyzed the sequence of genes in the h5n1 virus that killed the Kocyigits. They found the structure of those genes was very similar to that found in the avian version. But nimr director and influenza expert John Skehel says he has also found a worrisome protein change in one of the human genetic sequences.
