Capsid uncoating is essential for HIV replication, but what are the molecular triggers for uncoating? The amount of DNA synthesized makes a big difference.

If only there was some data showing that the polio vaccine works

Hello, we are @CB_Karsten, Assistant Professor at the Institute for Research on HIV and AIDS Associated Diseases at the @UniklinikEssen and @Baldauf_Lab, group leader at the MvPI at the @LMU_Muenchen. We will take over the @InfectNet channel and inform you about #HIV. #infectneXt

Well then, I’ll go over to Bluesky too!

Many people say Donald Trump would be very unhappy if you retweeted this video.

RT @paulkrugman: Trump, overnight: “If Kamala wins, you are 3 days away from the start of a 1929-style economic depression.” What has happ…

Very cool video of nuclear pore complex dynamics, predicted using AI. @burdickrc, @MohamedHusenM @ChengleiLi

Congratulations! 🍾🎈🎊🎉 👍

Never forget. 😓

Finally, the time we've longed for has arrived ☺️ Get ready for the AI-powered biotech revolution! 🧬🖖🏻

Congratulations to Hana, Eric, and all the coauthors! 🍾🎊🎉👍

Researchers have now discovered that HIV's capsid has evolved into a molecular transporter. It can directly breach a crucial barrier, which normally protects the cell nucleus against viral invaders. This way of smuggling keeps the viral genome invisible. tinyurl.com/3hrr5atb

To the the innate immunity tweeps: could anyone recommend an antibody working in immunofluorescence against (endogenous) RIG-I? Please RT 😊

Congratulations to Stefan @SarafianosLab and the team!

Thanks Belete! 😀👍

Congratulations Alicia, Krista, Yong Xiong, and all the authors on this awesome paper! 🎉🎈🎊🍾🍺🍷👏👏👏😀👍

Congratulations to Ryan and Alex!! Very well deserved!! 😀👍🎉🎊🍻

Haha! I like the lab coat!

Final Words ✨ “Last year, I had a life-changing experience at 90 years old. I went to space, after decades of playing an iconic science-fiction character who was exploring the universe. I thought I would experience a deep connection with the immensity around us, a deep call for endless exploration. “I was absolutely wrong. The strongest feeling, that dominated everything else by far, was the deepest grief that I had ever experienced. “I understood, in the clearest possible way, that we were living on a tiny oasis of life, surrounded by an immensity of death. I didn’t see infinite possibilities of worlds to explore, of adventures to have, or living creatures to connect with. I saw the deepest darkness I could have ever imagined, contrasting so starkly with the welcoming warmth of our nurturing home planet. “This was an immensely powerful awakening for me. It filled me with sadness. I realized that we had spent decades, if not centuries, being obsessed with looking away, with looking outside. I did my share in popularizing the idea that space was the final frontier. But I had to get to space to understand that Earth is and will stay our only home. And that we have been ravaging it, relentlessly, making it uninhabitable.” — William Shatner, actor
