Aminoglycosides bind to the influenza A virus promoter (vRNA) at submicromolar concentration. The complex structure between the vRNA and neomycin illustrates that binding of neomycin causes a conformational change which would affect further transcription processes. Thus, aminoglycosides represent lead compounds for the discovery of antiviral therapeutics against influenza A virus.
