The "viral infectivity factor (Vif)" of the HIV-1 virus can inhibit cellular defences. Cryo-electron microscopy has now been used by OIST researchers Prof. Matthias Wolf and Dr. Takahide Kouno as well as a global team of collaborators to discover the atomic structure of the "APOBEC3G-Vif com
Cryo-electron microscopy by University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of a virus able to infect Staphylococcus epidermidis, and high-resolution knowledge of structure is a key link bet
