When it comes to landing the ideal job, having a great start can make all the difference. When it comes to working in cyberinfrastructure or research computing, there isn’t a much better way to start ...

formed by self-assembly of viral capsid proteins, which lack viral genetic material, cannot replicate independently, and are safer during production. VLPs can display membrane proteins in their ...

Genes are DNA sequences that code for a particular protein required for cell function. If we remove viral genetic material from the capsid (protein coat) we can use the space to transport a "cargo" ...

In an article published in Plos Biology, scientists show that the attachment of a retrovirus protein, called Gag, which plays a central role in the formation of viral particles, is necessary but ...

Like humans and other complex multicellular organisms, single-celled bacteria can fall ill and fight off viral infections. A ...

thus ensuring that only viral and not cellular RNA is packaged into the viral capsid. To date, only some vectors of the genera gammaretroviruses, lentiviruses and foamy viruses have been used for ...

“One possible change could be that capsid expansion may correlate with being filled,” Heldt says. “The increase in packaged genome size increases the internal pressure of some viral capsids ...

Matica Biotechnology (Matica Bio), a leading contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) for viral vectors, announced today the successful development of a high-resolution ion ...
