Abstract: More importantly, after 5 passages in mice, the virus acquired two adaptive mutations, PB1-H115Q and B2-E627K, exhibiting increased virulence and aerosol transmissibility.
Introduction: reported that mutations in PB2 (E627K), NA (R294K) and PA (V100A) were significantly correlated with increased mortality, while other mutations in HA (N276D) and PB2 (N559T) were distinctly correlated with mild cases.
Discussion: Based on our data, we found that H115Q in PMID: 34156583

Virus genes
Abstract: The HA genes of A(H3N2) viruses analysed belonged to clades 3C.3a (21 strains) and 3C.2a (5 strains): subclades 3C.2a1b + T131K, 3C.2a1b + T135K-B and 3C.2a1b + T135K-A.
Dynamic residue interaction network analysis of the oseltamivir binding site of N1 neuraminidase and its H274Y mutation site conferring drug resistance in influenza A virus.
Discussion: 6 and 7 show that in the WT NA, the 150-loop region undergoes conformational changes with large fluctuations between the open and closed states, whereas in the H274Y mutant NA, the 150-loop remains open.
Discussion: After the H274Y mutation, however, the structural fluctuation of the 150-loop became much smaller.
Discussion: As already mentioned, the 150 loop of NA is reported to open after the H274Y mutation ().
Discussion: Figure 6 shows the conformational changes of the 150-loop region (residues 147-152) in the WT and H274Y mutant NA by superimposing 100 snapshot images obtained from the MD simulations.
Discussion: Figure 7 shows the structural fluctuations of each residu
Identification of H3N2 NA and PB1-F2 genetic variants and their association with disease symptoms during the 2014-15 influenza season.
Abstract: In human nasal epithelial cell cultures, a virus with the novel NAg+F2P genotype replicated less well compared with a virus with the parental genotype.
Abstract: Retrospective analyses of clinical data showed that NAg+F2P genotype viruses were associated with increased cough and shortness of breath in infected patients.
Abstract: The NA and PB1-F2 mutations were present in a subset of clade 3C.2a viruses (NAg+F2P), which dominated during the subsequent influenza seasons.
Abstract: The isolates were classified by HA clade and the presence of a new set of co-selected mutations in NA (a glycosylation site, NAg+) and PB1-F2 (H75P).

Molecular Characterization of Seasonal Influenza A and B from Hospitalized Patients in Thailand in 2018-2019.
Discussion: Among these additional substitutions, the V303I amino acid substitution has been reported in the A/H3N2 viruses with a low resistance to neuraminidase inhibitors.
Discussion: For H3N2 viruses, we did not detect the mutations conferring resistance to neuraminidase inhibitors such as E119V, D151E, I222V, R224K, E276D, N249S, R292K, and R371K in the NA gene segment of our H3N2 isolates.
Discussion: However, an additional mutation (S200P) was detected in the Thai A/H1N1 isolates.
Discussion: Our Flu B isolates
Dual R108K and G189D Mutations in the NS1 Protein of A/H1N1 Influenza Virus Counteract Host Innate Immune Responses.
Abstract: The 2018 virus harbored amino acid mutations (I123V and N205S) in important functional sites; however, 108R and 189G were highly conserved between A/California/07/2009 and the 2018 variant.
Abstract: To better understand interactions between influenza viruses and the human innate immune system, we generated and rescued seasonal 2009 H1N1 IAV mutants expressing an NS1 protein harboring a dual mutation (R108K/G189D) at these conserved residues and then analyzed its biological characteristics.
Introduction: Here, we sequenced a seasonal 2009 H1N1 influenza virus isolated in 2018 and confirmed the presence of mutations I123V and N205S in important functional sites.
Introduction: However, the NS
Novel Clade 2.3.4.4b Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A H5N8 and H5N5 Viruses in Denmark, 2020.
Abstract: Genetic analyses of one of the H5N8 viruses revealed the presence of a substitution (PB2-M64T) that is highly conserved in human seasonal influenza A viruses.
Result: In addition, one of the H5N8 viruses (A/barnacle goose/Denmark/14139-3/2020) had a PB2-M64T amino acid substitution that is highly conserved in human influenza A H1N1, H2N2, and H3N2 viruses.
Result: The PB2-M64T substitution was not present in A/Astrakhan/3212/2020(H5N8) (EPI_ISL_1038924) virus detected in workers at a poultry farm in Russia on 12 December 2020.
Discussion: The genetic characterization revealed that one of the Danish H5N8 viruses contained a PB2-M64T substitution.
An influenza A(H5N8) virus isolated during an outbreak at a poultry farm in Russia in 2017 has an N294S substitution in the neuraminidase and shows reduced susceptibility to oseltamivir.
Abstract: An NA-N293/294S substitution was not present in sequences from the GISAID database.
Abstract: Fewer than 1% of analyzed viruses had amino acid substitutions associated with reduced susceptibility to baloxavir (PA-E199G, PA-E199E/G) or reduced or highly reduced inhibition by neuraminidase inhibitors (NA-R150/152K, NA-I221/222M, NA-I221/222I/M, NA-I221/222V, NA- PMID: 33914831

Abstract: Co-occurrence of the mutations D222G and D222N was detected in a substantial number of the studied fatal cases (41%).
Abstract: The D222G/N mutations in the hemagglutinin (HA) gene of A(H1N1)pdm09 are associated with severe and fatal human influenza cases.
Abstract: The D222G/N mutations were detected at a low frequency (less than 1%) in the rest of the studied samples from fatal and nonfatal cases of influenza.
Abstract: The high rate of occurrence of HA D222G/N mutations in A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses, their increased ability to replicate in the LRT and their association with fatal outcomes points to the importance of monitor
