Abstract excerpt
A system of reverse genetics was used to generate influenza A/H1N1 viruses harbouring neuraminidase (NA) mutations previously associated with resistance to NA inhibitors in various viral subtypes. The His274Tyr and Glu119Gln mutants were rescued whereas the Arg292Lys and Glu1l9 --> Gly, Val, Ala or Asp mutants could not be generated. In NA inhibition assays, the His274Tyr mutant was resistant to oseltamivir...
