Popis: Point mutations H274Y and N294S can lead to resistance of influenza virus strains to some drug molecules. Recently, a large number of experiments has focused on the many frameworks and catalytic residues thought to prevent the efficacy of anti-flu drugs. In the past, most research has considered the role of drugs in rigid proteins rather than in flexible proteins. In this study, we used molecular dynamics simulation (MD) combined with structure- and ligand-based drug design (SBDD and LBDD) methods to study dynamic interaction and protein dynamics correlation statistics between compounds and both the framework and catalytic residues in influenza virus N1 strains. Drug candidates were screened using the IC50 of the docking result predicted by support vector machine, multiple linear regression, and genetic function approximation (P
