A computational-experimental approach identifies mutations that enhance surface expression of an oseltamivir-resistant influenza neuraminidase.

The His274→Tyr (H274Y) oseltamivir (Tamiflu) resistance mutation causes a substantial decrease in the total levels of surface-expressed neuraminidase protein and activity in early isolates of human seasonal H1N1 influenza, and in the swine-origin pandemic H1N1. In seasonal H1N1, H274Y only became wi...
