The tiny shell protecting the HIV virus resembles a slightly rounded ice cream cone, but there is nothing sweet about it.
Researchers revealed that HIV integrase forms structural filaments within the viral capsid, enabling viral infectivity. The ...
A team of scientists at the Helmholtz Institute for RNA-based Infection Research (HIRI) in Würzburg and the University of Regensburg has unveiled insights into how HIV-1, the virus responsible for ...
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 ...
An international research team has identified a novel HIV antibody that targets the virus at a particularly vulnerable site ...
There is currently no cure for HIV, but medications can help people with the disease manage their symptoms. HIV can still develop into AIDS years after infection, however, even with disease management ...
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a germ that causes a lifelong infection that slowly weakens the immune system. Though the infection is lifelong, medicines can keep the virus in check and help ...
