PA-PB1 interaction site is an antiviral target. Analysis of the PAC-PB1N crystal structure “3CM8” [68] using Deep View-Swiss-PdbViewer 4.0. Residues 1–16 of PB1 (red) are shown in interaction with residues 258–716 of PA (blue). Many small molecule inhibitors of PA resemble the N terminus of PB1 and bind in the hydrophobic pocket blocking essential interactions between the polymerase subunits [68, 73, 95].
