Abstract excerpt
Here we report the isolation of influenza virus A/turkey/Minnesota/833/80 (H4N2) with a mutation at the catalytic residue of the neuraminidase (NA) active site, rendering it resistant to the novel NA inhibitor 4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en (GG167). The resistance of the mutant stems from replacement of one of three invariant arginines (Arg 292-->Lys) that are conserved among all viral and bacterial NAs and participate in...
