Avian influenza virus polymerases function poorly in mammals, restricting transmission across species and the emergence of pandemic outbreaks. Long et al. (2016) have now identified ANP32A as a crucial cellular protein that dictates species-specific polymerase activity.

The Barclay lab has implicated ANP32A as a host-specific enhancer of viral polymerase activity
