(A) The action of neuraminidase in the continued replication of virions in the setting of influenza infection. The replication is blocked by neuraminidase inhibitors (B), which prevent virions from being released from the surface of infected cells. (C) Binding of oseltamivir and zanamivir to the neuraminidase-active sites. (D) With mutation, a conformational change at the binding site prevents binding of oseltamivir but permits binding of zanamivir.
