RNA viruses constantly mutate, leading to unpredictable changes in immune and drug sensitivity. This review explores viral mutation studies and computational methods for tracking these changes and developing new antiviral strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Virology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Computational Science

Context:

  • RNA viruses, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), exhibit rapid genetic mutation.
  • These mutations alter viral properties such as immune and drug sensitivity, cell tropism, and host range.
  • The dynamic nature of viral genomes contributes to emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases.

Purpose:

  • To review mutation studies of RNA viruses, focusing on HIV.
  • To highlight the importance of understanding viral genome and protein alterations.
  • To introduce computational science advancements applied to viral mutation analysis and drug development.

Summary:

  • Viral mutations impact pathogen control and disease emergence.
  • Assessing protein structure and function changes remains challenging despite rapid genetic data accumulation.
