Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics and Heidelberg University have observed largely intact HIV-1 capsids as ...

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) targets important cells of our immune system, making infected individuals more ...

New Vericheck ddPCR Empty-Full Capsid Kits for AAV Serotypes 2 and 8 Provide Precise Measurement of Viral Titer and Capsid ...

Our study of human papillomavirus assembly has been translated into the development of vaccine reagents for the prevention of cervical cancer. We have found that subunits of the virus capsid ...

These viruses have only the capsid surrounding their genetic material. A virus budding from a host cell membrane. This sequence of steps forms the virus’s envelope. A host is an organism that a ...

Astellas Pharma and Sangamo Therapeutics have signed a licence agreement for a neurotropic adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid, STAC-BBB, aimed at treating neurological diseases. Astellas will ...

for the capsid protein P1, was recoded with 631 synonymous mutations to give a codon pair bias ∼4.5-fold lower than that of wild-type poliovirus. The attenuated virus was further manipulated by ...

The pulses are used to excite large amplitude vibrations in the protein coat of a viral particle — the capsid — thus damaging it and inactivating the virus. By proper tuning of the laser power ...
