Deep mutational scanning to enhance immunogenicity and map antibody responses to HIV-1
Vaccines have proven effective against numerous viral diseases, yet the development of a successful vaccine for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) remains elusive. A key immunogen for vaccine design is the surface envelope ... -
HIV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 immunogen design
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) is the aetiologic agent of AIDS. Presently there are ~38 million HIV-1 infected individuals worldwide and ~1 million deaths in 2019. Since its discovery, the quest for vaccine candidate ... -
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 ... -
Scanning mutagenesis studies of HIV-1 Env immunogenicity and structure
Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) is the etiological agent of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). AIDS is a global pandemic with 36.7 million people living with HIV-1 all over the world and approximately ... -
Structural Characterization of Biological Macromolecules by Random Conical Tilt Pair Experiments
Structural biology deals with determining the structure of biological macromolecules especially proteins, DNA, RNA. The conformational changes in the structure of a macromolecule helps to decipher its function. This ...
