  1. 21. Significance of HIV-1 genetic subtypes

    Författare :Annette Alaeus; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :HIV-1; genetic subtypes; molecular epidemiology; disease progression; CD4 cell decline; plasma RNA levels; chemokine coreceptor usage;

    Sammanfattning : The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) displays high genetic variability. Phylogenetic studies have shown that a majority of HIV-1 sequences cluster into one large group called M (major), whereas a few are clearly distinct, group O (outlier) and group N (non-M-non-O).

  2. 22. HIV-1 reverse transcriptase activity assays based on monoclonal antibodies to native enzyme : Applications on studies of antiviral substances and immunological variation of reverse transcriptase

    Författare :Ann-Sofie Rytting; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; HIV-1; reverse transcriptase; monoclonal antibody; activity assay; subtype; RT inhibitor; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Medical Genetics; medicinsk genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Specific detection of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) activity in crude materials was enhanced using a capture assay for immunopurification and subsequent activity assay. The purification step was achieved by anti-HIV-1 RT monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) immobilized onto a solid carrier. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Regulation of HIV-1 provirus transcription

    Författare :Mojgan H Naghavi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Key words- HIV-1; LTR; transcription; subtypes; phylogenetic analysis; NFkappaB; USF; MCEF; HMG-1 DSP1; Dorsal.;

    Sammanfattning : Transcription of the HIV-genome is regulated by the interaction of viral long terminal repeat (LTR) cis-acting sequences with a complex of viral regulatory proteins and cellular transcription factors. The complex interplay between the cellular-, and/or viral proteins and LTR of different subtypes may play a role in the control of HIV-1 latency versus activation. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Structural Studies of Bacteriophage PRR1 and HIV-1 protease

    Författare :Magnus Persson; Lars Liljas; Kaspars Tars; Félix Rey; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; PRR1; HIV; Structural Biology; X-ray crystallography; PRR1; HIV-1 protease; NCS; crystallography; inhibitor; virus; bacteriophage; X-ray crystallography; Virology; Virologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Viruses are a diverse genera of organisms adapted to thrive in many different hosts from prokaryotic to eukaryotic.We present here the structure of bacteriophage PRR1 virus-like particle (VLP), belonging to Leviviridae family. Our structure reveals calcium ions in the VLP. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Co-evolution of the HIV-1 R5 phenotype and the viral envelope glycoproteins

    Författare :Johanna Repits; Avdelningen för medicinsk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; envelope; R5; HIV-1; evolution;

    Sammanfattning : To gain entry into target cells, HIV-1 binds to CD4 via the viral glycoprotein gp120. This interac-tion initiates a series of events including binding of a coreceptor, CCR5 and/or CXCR4, and ulti-mately leads to gp41-mediated fusion of the viral and cell membranes. LÄS MER
