Abstract excerpt
The emergence of influenza drug resistance is a major public health concern. The molecular basis of resistance to oseltamivir (Tamiflu) is investigated using a computational assay involving multiple 500 ns unrestrained molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of oseltamivir complexed with mutants of H1N1-2009 influenza neuraminidase. The simulations, accelerated using graphics processors (GPUs), and using a fully...
