How does a single nucleotide change make influenza virus resistant to a drug? |
At www.scienceblogs.com/digitalbio/2007/09/post_2.php Sandra Porter
discusses an aspect of evolution at work and reveals:
"The neat thing is that working with structures like this and
looking at the differences is something that anyone can do. All you
need is a computer (Windows, Mac OS X, and UNIX work best as far as I
can tell), Cn3D (a freely available program from the NCBI), and a
connection to the internet to get the superimposed structures. Once
you've got the structures, you can work with them on your computer."

I'm trying to figure out which amino acids those are. I'm thinking
arginine and lysine. I've used other programs, but this looks like a
nice one. good find!
