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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Researchers at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine and University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) have created a three-dimensional picture of an important protein that is involved in ...

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a viral infection that attacks our immune systems. Infection enters the body by contact ...

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

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 ...

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

Duke Human Vaccine Institute (DHVI) investigators used a technique called time-resolved, temperature-jump (TR, T-Jump) small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) to capture the spectacularly brief moment ...

A breakthrough study reveals a new antibody that could transform the fight against HIV, neutralising over 98 percent of ...
