Influenza viral hemagglutinin(HA)-sialoside receptor interaction is a target event for in silico chemical prediction studies about the virus host range determination." "We theoretically studied avian and human influenza A virus HA H3 subtype complexed with avian or human type receptor Neu5Ac alpha(2-3 or 2-6)Gal analogues by ab initio fragment molecular orbital (FMO) method at the second order Muller-Plesset...
