  "summary": "Efforts to develop a universal influenza vaccine have primarily focused on the surface-exposed viral hemagglutinin (HA), but neuraminidase (NA) is an additional target for cross-reactive, protective responses. Here, we used hyperglycosylation as an immunogen design approach to reshape anti-NA humoral immunity toward conserved antigenic regions. Iterative design produced a hyperglycosylated NA…",
