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… 
Mutation effects of neuraminidases and their docking with ligands: a molecular dynamics and free energy calculation study
TLDR
For all NA subtypes, the electrostatic contributions are the major driving force for ligand binding and largely responsible for the binding differences between the wild-type and mutated NA proteins.
Insight into the Oseltamivir Resistance R292K Mutation in H5N1 Influenza Virus: A Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics Approach
TLDR
This study investigates the structural and dynamical effects throughout the protein structure and specifically, at the drug-binding pocket of H5N1 to provide valuable guidance for the resistance management of oseltamivir and designing of more potent antiviral inhibitor.
Exploring the Mechanism of Zanamivir Resistance in a Neuraminidase Mutant: A Molecular Dynamics Study
TLDR
It is indicated that the altered hydrogen-bond network and the deformation of the 150 loop are the key factors in development of Zanamivir resistance.
Molecular Dynamics Simulations Suggest that Electrostatic Funnel Directs Binding of Tamiflu to Influenza N1 Neuraminidases
TLDR
An electrostatic binding funnel that plays a key role in directing oseltamivir into and out of its binding site on N1 neuraminidase is revealed, suggesting how mutations disrupt drug binding and how new drugs may circumvent the resistance mechanisms.
In silico study on multidrug resistance conferred by I223R/H275Y double mutant neuraminidase.
TLDR
A systematic in silico study to explore the structural basis underlying this multidrug resistance of the I223R/H275Y double mutant of neuraminidase (NA), finding the stronger resistance can be ascribed to the overall looser but locally more compact structure of the former.
Single Active Site Mutation Causes Serious Resistance of HIV Reverse Transcriptase to Lamivudine: Insight from Multiple Molecular Dynamics Simulations
TLDR
Investigation of the molecular mechanism of M184I single mutation which played pivotal role in making the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) totally resistant to lamivudine showed that single mutations at residue 184 of RT caused distortion of the orientation of lamivUDine in the active site.
Origins of resistance to the HIVgp41 viral entry inhibitor T20.
TLDR
An atomic-level model of a T20-gp41 complex embedded in an explicit DOPC membrane was constructed, and molecular dynamics simulations, followed by binding energy analysis, were performed to delineate structural and energetic features that contribute to drug resistance.
Heating Dynamics Simulation of H274Y Mutant Neuraminidase-Inhibitors Complexes
The H274Y mutant neuraminidase, known as oseltamivir-resistant, can be inhibited by zanamivir and laninamivir. The inhibition of oseltamivir-resistant neuraminidase has been experimented in vivo and
Characterizing Loop Dynamics and Ligand Recognition in Human- and Avian-Type Influenza Neuraminidases via Generalized Born Molecular Dynamics and End-Point Free Energy Calculations
TLDR
Seven generalized Born molecular dynamics simulations of avian and human NAs in order to probe the comparative flexibility of the two subtypes, both with and without the inhibitor oseltamivir bound suggest that entropic considerations cannot be neglected when comparing across the subtypes.

Investigation of neuraminidase-substrate recognition using molecular dynamics and free energy calculations.
TLDR
This investigation suggests that the enhanced selectivity and potency of the better ligands may arise from an improved positioning of their ligand atoms in the active site due to polar and hydrophobic functionalities.
Structural studies of the resistance of influenza virus neuramindase to inhibitors.
TLDR
The sensitivity of neuraminidase variants E119G and R292K to BCX-1812 has been measured and found in both cases to be intermediate between those of zanamivir and oseltamivIR.
Binding of antifusion peptides with HIVgp41 from molecular dynamics simulations: Quantitative correlation with experiment
TLDR
The results show that differential association of C‐peptides with HIVgp41 is driven solely by changes within the conserved pocket supporting the hypothesis that this region is an important drug target site, and demonstrates good sensitivity of this computational method for simulating peptide fusion inhibitors.
Mutations in a Conserved Residue in the Influenza Virus Neuraminidase Active Site Decreases Sensitivity to Neu5Ac2en-Derived Inhibitors
TLDR
A novel series of influenza virus NA inhibitors in which the triol group of zanamivir has been replaced by a hydrophobic group linked by a carboxamide at the 6 position (6-carboxamide) is identified.

A predictive and robust QSAR model for binding to type A neuraminidase was obtained and provides guidelines for structural modification of current inhibitors and the design of novel inhibitors in order to optimize inhibitory activity.
Analysis of inhibitor binding in influenza virus neuraminidase
TLDR
Replacement of the hydroxyl at the C9 position in DANA and 4‐amino‐DANA with an amine group, with the intention of taking advantage of an increased electrostatic interaction with a conserved acidic group in the active site to improve inhibitor binding, significantly reduces the inhibitor activity of both compounds.

Molecular modeling studies on ligand binding to sialidase from influenza virus and the mechanism of catalysis.
TLDR
A molecular modeling study has been used to investigate the structural and energetic aspects of substrate and inhibitor binding and the mechanism of catalysis of influenza virus sialidase and it is proposed that the hydrolysis of sialosides occurs via an SN1 type mechanism that is facilitated through an activated solvent water molecule which can be expelled upon inhibitor binding.
