| Zusammenfassung: | Membrane-enveloped viruses are responsible for most viral pandemics in history, and more effort is needed to advance broadly applicable countermeasures to mitigate the impact of future outbreaks. In this Perspective, we discuss how biosensing techniques associated with lipid model membrane platforms are contributing to improving our mechanistic knowledge of membrane fusion and destabilization that is closely linked to viral entry as well as vaccine and antiviral drug development. A key benefit of these platforms is the simplicity of interpreting the results which can be complemented by other techniques to decipher more complicated biological observations and evaluate the biophysical functionalities that can be correlated to biological activities. Then, we introduce exciting application examples of membrane-targeting antivirals that have been refined over time and will continue to improve based on biophysical insights. Two ways to abrogate the function of viral membranes are introduced here: (1) selective disruption of the viral membrane structure and (2) alteration of the membrane component. While both methods are suitable for broadly useful antivirals, the latter also has the potential to produce an inactivated vaccine. Collectively, we emphasize how biosensing tools based on membrane interfacial science can provide valuable information that could be translated into biomedicines and improve their selectivity and performance |
