Abstract

Recent virological researches using biophysical methods, termed as virus biophysics or virophysics, largely contribute to the development of anti-viral drugs and vaccines. In this review, examples of structural and physicochemical analyses for representative viruses to develop drug modalities such as small compounds, antibodies, and vaccines are explained, and future direction of biophysical research for virus research is also discussed.
