The tiny shell protecting the HIV virus resembles a slightly rounded ice cream cone, but there is nothing sweet about it.
This week, a new paper described how researchers pieced together the entire molecular structure of the protein shell of the HIV virus using GPU-based simulations. This remarkable achievement not only ...
Researchers revealed that HIV integrase forms structural filaments within the viral capsid, enabling viral infectivity. The ...
Seeing a glycoprotein on the envelope of the HIV virus snap open and shut in mere millionths of a second is giving investigators a new handle on the surface of the virus that could lead to broadly ...
The HIV-1 virus can neutralize cellular defenses with its viral infectivity factor (Vif). OIST researchers Prof. Matthias Wolf and Dr. Takahide Kouno together with an international team of colleagues ...
An international research team has identified a novel HIV antibody that targets the virus at a particularly vulnerable site ...
