Long-acting antiviral medications are transforming HIV prevention and care, requiring only minimalistic dosing. But as the use of lenacapavir expands, scientists are probing a critical question: If ...

Capsid resembles retroviral capsids In the new study, the researchers employed cryo-lift-out, a technique that allows researchers to prepare complex tissues for cryo-ET by combining focused ion beams ...

A computational model of the more than 26 million atoms in a DNA-packed viral capsid expands our understanding of virus structure and DNA dynamics, insights that could provide new research avenues and ...

A recent study confirms lenacapavir's effectiveness against HIV and highlights the capsid as a promising drug target despite resistance.

The tiny shell protecting the HIV virus resembles a slightly rounded ice cream cone, but there is nothing sweet about it.

Watch this dynamic webinar for valuable insights into characterizing the stability of an engineered adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotype under moderate thermal stress and physiological solution ...

Because viruses have to hijack someone else’s cell to replicate, they’ve gotten very good at it—inventing all sorts of tricks. A new study from two University of Chicago scientists has revealed how ...
