Amino acids differing between virus A and B and changes observed between wild-type and resistant viruses.
Changes between the 2 wild-type viruses | |||
Gene | Position | Virus A | Virus B |
PB1 | 537 | S | N |
563 | K | R | |
PA | 14 | V | I |
716 | K | Q | |
HA | 114 | N | D |
NP | 194 | V | I |

Changes between the wild-type and resistant viruses | |||
Virus A to Ar | NS | L95I | |
NA | H275Y | ||
Virus B to Br | HA | A15T, F432L | |
NA | H275Y |
NOTE. Eight amino acid differences were observed between the 2 wild-type viruses, demonstrating that the viruses isolated from the 2 patients were not identical at baseline. The only shared mutation selected for under drug pressure between the resistant viral isolates was the NA H275Y mutation.
