Scientists at the Electron Bio-Imaging Centre (eBIC) at Diamond Light Source, in the U.K., have harnessed a new technique, using cryo-electron tomography (cryoET) and subtomogram averaging (STA) to ...

Scientists have determined the molecular structure of HIV Pol, a protein that plays a key role in the late stages of HIV replication, or the process through which the virus propagates itself and ...

In what may be one of the most important HIV research breakthroughs in years, scientists have discovered a strikingly ...

In a discovery that could spur the development of new therapies for more than 40 million HIV patients worldwide, scientists from Rutgers University and the Salk Institute determined the molecular ...

Once HIV infects a cell, the virus inserts its genetic information into the DNA, making the infection generally incurable.

An international research team led by the University of Cologne has discovered an antibody that could advance the fight ...

Researchers at Western University and the University of Calgary have discovered how HIV hides in different parts of the body ...

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 ...

Left: Structure of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Note the envelope protein that protects the virus against immunological detection and the small genome consisting of two short strands of RNA ...

For over three decades, HIV has played an elaborate game of hide-and-seek with researchers, making treating—and possibly even ...
