Abstract: We therefore screened a known mutation(s) that could confer multidrug resistance to the currently approved
NAIs oseltamivir, zanamivir, and peramivir by assessing recombinant viruses with mutant
NA-encoding genes (catalytic residues
R152K and
R292K, framework residues
E119A/D/G,
D198N,
H274Y, and
N294S) in the backbones of the 2009 pandemic H1N1 (pH1N1) and highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 viruses.
