The research aims to gain a deeper mechanistic understanding of HIV assembly, maturation, and uncoating processes, with a focus on the roles of viral RNA, host cell factors, and...
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.855), awarded a $603,338 Project Grant to Yale University. The grant supports research to understand how the human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) mediates fusion with host cells, specifically investigating the interactions between the viral envelope glycoprotein (Env), cellular receptors CD4 and CCR5/CXCR4, and cell membranes. Using...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $617,376 to Emory University to conduct research on the activation and maturation of the HIV-1 virus. The key objectives are to: 1) Measure the timing of protease (PR) activation relative to HIV-1 budding from the host cell, 2) Assess the rate and extent of PR substrate cleavage and correlate this with formation of...
This $775,391 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) aims to investigate the role of the human protein galectin-9 in HIV persistence and the establishment of the long-term viral reservoir. The primary awardee, Vitalant Research Institute, will conduct in vitro studies to elucidate the molecular and immunological mechanisms underlying galectin-9's impact on the HIV reservoir. Additionally,...
This Project Grant award of $1,454,386.00 from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), supports fundamental research to better understand the epigenetic regulation of the HIV-1 viral RNA cap. The research aims to define the structural basis of HIV cap hypermethylation and its linkage to modulating host innate immune signaling, with the goal of developing new treatments to neutralize deleterious...
This federal Project Grant award of $2,505,639 from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) supports research to understand the molecular interactions between lentivirus capsids and the nuclear pore complex protein NUP358. The project aims to investigate how the binding of lentiviral capsids, including HIV-1 and HIV-2, to the RBD4-CHD didomain of NUP358 impacts viral nuclear import and replication....
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) awarded a $258,200 Project Grant under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) to the University of Colorado-Denver. The grant supports research to investigate the non-catalytic functions of HIV-1 integrase (IN) during virion maturation, including developing a biochemical model system to examine IN's ability to encapsulate viral RNA within capsid-like particles and determining cryo-EM structures of IN...
