}Point mutations in the influenza virus enzyme neuraminidase (NA) have been reported that lead to dramatic loss of activity for known NA inhibitors including the FDA approved sialic acid mimics zanamivir and oseltamivir. A more complete understanding of the molecular basis for such resistance is a critical component toward development of improved next-generation drugs. In this study, we have used explicit solvent all-atom molecular dynamics simulations, free energy calculations (MM-GBSA), and…
