Protein Engineering and Stabilization of HIV-1 Envelope Glycoprotein
(2018-05-09)
A number of viral diseases such as Hepatitis B, small pox, measles, rubella and polio have effective vaccines to control or eradicate them. HIV-1 is a lentivirus which infects human immune cells and leads to the disease ...
Design and Characterization of HIV-1 ENV Derived Immunogens
(2018-06-21)
The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a member of the retroviridae family from lentivirus genus which primarily infects CD4+ T cells and also to lesser degree monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells causing progressive ...
HIV-1 Immunogen Design : Envelope Protein Minimization, Stabilization and Glycan Removal
Effective vaccines exist for a number of viral diseases. However, despite much effort, there is no successful vaccine against the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1). The envelope glycoprotein (Env) of HIV-1 gp120, the ...
Effects of Cyclic Permutation, Glycan Removal and Aspartate Mutagenesis on Conformation of HIV-1 Envelope
It has been decades since Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 (HIV-1) was discovered. The virus has created havoc worldwide. According to the UNAIDS 2014 Gap report, 35million people worldwide are infected with HIV-1 and yet ...
