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 ...

As the HIV virus glides up outside a human cell to dock and possibly inject its deadly cargo of genetic code, there’s a spectacularly brief moment in which a tiny piece of its surface snaps open to ...

A team of scientists at the Salk Institute and Rutgers University has determined the molecular structure of HIV Pol, a protein that plays a key role in the late stages of HIV replication, the process ...

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 ...

Penn researcher Drew Weissman spent decades developing mRNA technology. He says it helps target the rapidly mutating human immunodeficiency virus. This 2012 colorized electron microscope image made ...

With a 10M yuan award, equivalent to about $1.41M, the WLA prize is one of the largest scientific awards in the world.

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 ...
