The present invention relates to a method of analyzing a composition of nucleic acids derived from a single cell using a microplate including a plurality of reaction wells, the microplate having one bead arranged in one reaction well, the one bead having bound thereto a plurality of molecules of single-stranded oligonucleotides, the single-stranded oligonucleotides each having a nucleic acid capture sequence exposed at the 3' end and a barcode sequence on the 5&#x2032; side of the nucleic acid capture sequence, the barcode sequence including a base sequence that differs from bead to bead.

Method for analyzing nucleic acid derived from single cell

The present invention relates to an antiviral drug comprising as an active ingredient a substance capable of suppressing an expression of a target gene or an activity of a protein encoded by said target gene, wherein said target gene is one or more genes having an action of retaining virus-derived nucleic acid in a host cell and selected from the group consisting of DOCK11 gene, LIPG gene, DENND2A gene, and HECW2 gene. The present invention also relates to a screening method for the antiviral drug.
