Antigenic shift occurs when major changes in genetic material have occurred. This usually occurs when cells are infected with two different strains of influenza virus at the same time. This co-infection is of concern when it involves viruses from different species(human, avian, swine, or equine). Because of the segmented RNA [ribonucleic acid] in the virus(8 genes) movement of genes from one virus to another are possible. This antigenic shift can then create a new hybrid virus which can become pathogenic to a different species. 1, record 1, English, - hybrid%20virus

Il ne suffit pas à un virus aviaire d'être enveloppé d'antigènes inconnus par les populations humaines, faut-il encore qu'il soit doué d'une bonne capacité à se répliquer chez leur nouvel hôte potentiel. C'est exactement ces deux propriétés que peuvent posséder les virus hybrides issus d'un réassortiment entre deux virus parentaux : l'un humain et l'autre aviaire selon le principe suivant. À l'occasion d'une co-infection d'un porc, par exemple, avec un virus humain et un virus d'oiseau, les brins d'ARN [acide ribonucléique] étant physiquement indépendants, il peut se former une particule virale hybride. Ce virus hybride ou virus réassortant, qui se forme au moment du bourgeonnement à la fin du cycle viral, peut emprunter les gènes «internes d'adaptation» à l'homme et les gènes H [hémagglutinine] et/ou N [neuraminidase] du virus d'oiseau. Dans ce phénomène, il y a changement complet d'une molécule de surface telle que l'hémagglutinine. Ce virus réassortant, «humain» dedans et «oiseau» dehors, cumule l'avantage de pouvoir se répliquer chez l'homme et celui de ne pas rencontrer de défense spécifique contre lui car les H et N aviaires ne correspondent pas aux anticorps qui préexistent dans les populations humaines. C'est alors un virus nouveau pour l'homme qui est potentiellement capable de provoquer une épidémie majeure au niveau mondial ou pandémie. 3, record 1, French, - virus%20hybride

Fraenkel-Conrat y Singer (1957) comprobaron que era posible separar el ARN [ácido ribonucleico] y la cápside de dos tipos de virus TMV [virus del mosaico del tabaco] diferentes y reconstruir virus con la cápside de un tipo y el ARN de otro tipo. Cuando estos virus híbridos con cápside de un tipo (tipo 1) y ARN de otro tipo (tipo 2) se utilizaban para infectar hojas de tabaco, los virus descendientes de la infección mostraban siempre un tipo de cápside (tipo 2) coincidente con el tipo de ARN (tipo 2) utilizado en la infección. 3, record 1, Spanish, - virus%20h%C3%ADbrido

El virus de la gripe de una especie es capaz de intercambiar material genético con los virus de la gripe de otra especie en un proceso conocido como "redistribución". [...] Cuando los virus intercambian material genético por un proceso de redistribución, se produce un nuevo virus híbrido [...] 4, record 1, Spanish, - virus%20h%C3%ADbrido

Health Canada. The National Expert Committee on Tuberculosis is addressing five key areas related to Tuberculosis(TB) prevention and control. TB in aboriginal people, case management, HIV and TB co-infection, immigration, and laboratory. At a future conference, a national strategy for the prevention and control of TB with recommended standards and priorities will be developed through a consensus process with key stakeholders. 1, record 3, English, - National%20Expert%20Committee%20on%20Tuberculosis
