Influenza inhibition mechanism. Artwork of the membrane of an influenza (flu) virus,showing a molecule of the drug zanamivir (space-filled sphere model,upper left) acting to inhibit the enzyme neuraminidase (yellow,bottom). Also shown are membrane proteins hemagglutinin (red) and an ion channel (M2,blue,far left). Zanamivir is an antiviral drug (commonly known by its trade name Relenza). It is administered in spray form for inhalation,and reduces the length of an attack of influenza (flu) if taken early in the course of the disease | |
