Computational analysis of the variations in the HIV-1 genome sequence that correlate with preferential binding to the CCR5 (C-C-motif receptor 5) or CXCR4 (C-X-C motif receptor 4) coreceptors in ...

For the first time, researchers have observed how HIV penetrates the nuclear pores to the genome of human immune cells Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) targets important cells of our immune ...

Curing HIV will be harder than curing cancer. But new research is promising.HIV is "like a time bomb," said James Riley, a microbiologist at University of Pennsylvania, US. Scott Kitchen, an expert in ...

Once inside human cells, HIV integrates the viral genome into that of the human host. Ultimately, the virus uses our body's machinery to produce copies of itself and spread infection. The HIV-1 ...

He set out to answer this question, and recently published in the Journal of Virology that some of the excised viral DNA molecules form stable DNA circles that can reintegrate into the genome. 3 This ...

Although several human genetic variants have been implicated in the control and spread of HIV within a host, this is the first time that a sex chromosome has been found to harbor a suspect stretch of ...

The aim: to use whole genome sequencing to identify and understand the polymorphism and mutations within individuals of African descent and how they relate to HIV. “We screen participants by ...

HIV-1, like other viruses ... was an intricate RNA structure near the critical "frameshift site" in the viral genome. This frameshift site is essential for the virus to produce the correct ...

They also said the 2025 Budget in the National Assembly should be tweaked to accommodate the vacuum to be created by the funding cut.

HIV drug susceptibility tests can evaluate either the genotype or phenotype of the predominant viral quasispecies. The HIV genotype refers to the actual DNA sequence of the virus; the phenotype ...
