Relevance. Coronaviruses and influenza viruses induce pandemics taking away many human lives and seeding social-economic chaos. Possibility to prognose pandemic features on characteristics of surface proteins of their pathogens is not investigated.Aim is to characterize the common features of the pandemic coronavirus S-protein and the pandemic virus influenza hemagglutinin in connection with the features of a coronavirus pandemic and influenza pandemics.Materials and method. For the bioinformatic analysis the protein sequences of pandemic coronavirus strains and pandemic influenza virus strains, influenza virus strains of 2017–2018 season and also influenza virus type B strains were used. In proteins an amino acid content, the sums of the charged amino acids and the.Results. It was found out that the increase of amount of the amino acids forming intrinsically disordered regions in the coronavirus S-protein S1 subunit and influenza virus H1 hemagglutinin HA1 subunit is characteristic of the pandemics with high morbidity and the increase of arginine and lysine with comparison with aspartic and glutamic acids in those proteins is peculiar to viruses inducing the pandemics with lower lethality.Conclusion. The features (morbidity and lethality) of the coronavirus pandemic and influenza virus pandemic are associated with the quantitative amino acids content of pandemic virus surface proteins.

In a review of the features of the bacterial cells are Corynebacterium structure: characterized by an upper layer, highly organized cell wall, cytoplasmic membrane, cytoplasm, nucleoid. Described in detail the structure of the upper layer containing pili (fimbriae), microcapsule surface proteins - PS-2, DIP1281, 67-72r protein (hemagglutinin), porins, sialidase (neuraminidase). These components are the ability to initiate a serial of Corynebacterium work with the host cell, followed by colonization. It submitted a detailed description of the structure and functions of cell wall structures - cord factor, which is a second barrier permeability; arabinogalactan, peptidoglycan, lipomannan and lipoarabinomannan. The structure and function of the cytoplasmic membrane as the main diffusion barrier cell cytoplasm and the genome of Corynebacterium. Presented different molecular genetic methods for the identification and differentiation of closely related species of Corynebacterium.
