Reversion of Influenza A (H3N2) from Amantadine-resistant to Amantadine-sensitive by Further Reassortment in Japan during the 2006-2007 Influenza Season.
Furuse Y, Suzuki A, Kamigaki T, Shimizu M, Fuji N, Oshitani H. - Tohoku University Graduate School of Medicine, Sendai, Japan.
In the 2006-2007 influenza season, amantadine-sensitive strains were found among the N-lineage influenza A (H3N2) viruses, which were previously believed to be associated with amantadine resistance.
Whole genome sequencing results indicated that this was due to a further reassortment event.
