Grant Activity:
Understanding how viruses overcome the nuclear pore complex, the gatekeeper of genomic access
Purpose:
HIV remains an incurable disease. New ways of treating HIV infection are needed if we are to be ready for emerging strains that are resistant to current treatments. The viral shell, the ‘capsid’, has proven to be a good target for new drugs. We aim to understand how the capsid tricks immune cells into allowing HIV to enter their nuclei where it establishes infection. Understanding how HIV enters the nucleus will not only inform HIV therapies but also virus-inspired gene therapy technologies.
