viruses is comparable with that of amantadine in inhibiting WT influenzavirus. Solution NMR studies and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of drug-M2 interactions supported our design hypothesis: namely, the dual inhibitor binds in the WT M2channel with an aromatic group facing down toward the C-terminus, while the same drug binds in the S31N M2channel with its aromatic group facing up toward the N-terminus
