Though treatments are available, there is no cure or vaccine from HIV, which impacts about 38 million people worldwide. It's difficult to target the RNA genome of the HIV virus in part because it ...

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 ...

A new technique using electron tomography and subtomogram averaging at Diamond's electron Bio-Imaging Centre (eBIC), has solved the structure of the HIV capsid alone and in complex with host factors.

The herpesvirus is genetically and structurally one of the most complex viruses. It spreads within the host population efficiently, causing a range of diseases in humans, including congenital ...

Human noroviruses are a major cause of gastroenteritis outbreaks worldwide. They cause approximately 200,000 deaths each year in developing countries. However, no effective vaccine or antiviral agent ...

With up to 2.4 million U.S. cases and over 250 million chronic cases globally, hepatitis B infection persists despite the availability of a vaccine. Vaccines work by immunizing the body against a ...

A 3-D model of adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid structure: AAV capsid sixty subunits assemble to generate the icosahedral symmetric virus capsid. The viral asymmetric unit of the capsid is bounded ...
