Despite active control strategies, including the vaccination program in poultry, H9N2 avian influenza viruses possessing mutations in hemagglutinin (HA) were frequently isolated. In this study, we analyzed the substitutions at HA residue 193 (H3 numbering) of H9N2 and investigated the impact of these mutations on viral properties. Our study indicated that H9N2 circulating in the Chinese poultry have experienced frequent mutations at HA residue 193 since 2013, with viruses that carried asparagine (N) being replaced by those with alanine (A), aspartic acid (D), glutamic acid (E), glycine (G), and serine (S), etc. Our results showed the N193G mutation impeded the multiple cycles of growth of H9N2, and although most of the variant HAs retained the preference for human-like receptors as did the wild-type N193 HA, the N193E mutation altered the preference for both human and avian-like receptors. Furthermore, these mutations substantially altered the antigenicity of H9N2 as measured by both monoclonal antibodies and antisera. In vivo studies further demonstrated that these mutations showed profound impact on viral replication and transmission of H9N2 in chicken. Viruses with D, E, or S at residue 193 acquired the ability to replicate in lungs of the infected chickens, whereas virus with G193 reduced its transmissibility in infected chickens to those in direct contact. Our findings demonstrated that variations at HA residue 193 altered various properties of H9N2, highlighting the significance of the continued surveillance of HA for better understanding of the etiology and effective control of H9N2 in poultry. IMPORTANCE H9N2 are widespread and have sporadically caused clinical diseases in humans. Extensive vaccinations in poultry helped constrain H9N2; however, they might have facilitated the evolution of the virus. It is therefore of importance to monitor the variation of the circulating H9N2 and evaluate its risk to both veterinary and public health. Here, we found substitutions at position 193 of HA from H9N2 circulated since 2013 and assessed the impact of several mutations on viral properties. Our data showed these mutations resulted in substantial antigenic change. N193E altered the binding preference of HA for human-like to both avian and human-like receptors. More importantly, N193G impaired the growth of H9N2 and its transmission in chickens, whereas mutations from N to D, E, and S enhanced the viral replication in lungs of chickens. Our study enriched the knowledge about H9N2 and may help implement an effective control strategy for H9N2.
