Yuki Naito, Kumiko Ui-Tei, Toru Nishikawa, Yutaka Takebe and Kaoru Saigo used the expertise of biology and informatics, and designed the system. Yuki Naito and Toru Nishikawa together implemented the entire system of siVirus, and developed novel, efficient algorithms for designing antiviral siRNAs. This work was supported in part by grants from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan to K.S., K.U.-T. and Y.T., and by grants from the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan to Y.T.
