This downstream structure is thought to pause the ribosome while the A and P sites are occupied by the slippery sequence. Although the precise mechanism is not fully understood, frameshifting occurs ...

In the ongoing fight against HIV, scientists have taken a new step toward long-term control of the virus. Researchers have ...

Innovative, nontoxic molecules developed by a research team at the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) ...

In order to meet the biological constraints, In this paper we consider a system of four equations which captures T-cell-HIV interactions. It describes the behavior of normal T cells, latently-infected ...

With approximately 37 million people living with HIV worldwide and an estimated 2 million new infections reported each year, the need to derive novel strategies aimed at eradicating HIV-1 infection ...

Whether antiretroviral therapy (ART) is always completely suppressive, or HIV might continue to replicate at low levels despite ART in some people with HIV (PWH), is still debated. Here, we ...

A cold sore might seem like a minor nuisance. But behind that tingling lip is one of the world’s most widespread and cunning viruses—herpes simplex virus type 1, or HSV-1. It infects billions of ...

In a study of human immune cells infected with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, scientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say a molecule within HIV itself can be manipulated and amplified to force the ...

HiCapR uncovers HIV RNA homodimers and long-range interactions that show structural dynamics critical for viral packaging and assembly.

According to a phase 1 trial, the experimental HIVconsvX vaccine is safe and immunogenic among sub-Saharan African participants who bear the highest burden of HIV-1.

Antiretroviral therapy initiated during acute infection in women with HIV-1 clade C reduces anti-Tat antibody production and lowers CD8+ T cell activation ...

Scientists have discovered that the internal shape of tiny drug-delivery particles—called lipid nanoparticles—has a big impact on how well our cells absorb them, paving the way to more ...
