Abstract excerpt
Quantum mechanical fragment molecular orbital calculations have been performed for receptor binding of the hemagglutinin protein of the recently pandemic influenza 2009 H1N1, A/swine/Iowa/1930, and A/Puerto Rico/8/1934 viruses to α2-6 linked sialyloligosaccharides, as analogs of human receptors....
