Abstract excerpt
Influenza neuraminidase (NA) plays an important role in viral replication, and characterization of viruses resistant to NA inhibitors will help elucidate the role of active-site residues. This information will assist in designing better inhibitors targeted to essential active-site residues that cannot generate drug-resistant mutations. In the present study we used the benzoic acid-based inhibitor BCX-140 to...
