This 3-D model was obtained by cryo-electron tomography. HIV is thought to originate from simian immunodeficiency virus, also known as the African Green Monkey virus.

Researchers at the California Institute of Technology are the first to have utilized high-resolution electron microscopy to look at HIV infection within the actual tissue of an infected organism ...

"HIV is like a jack-in-the-box," says Sriram Subramaniam, a biophysicist at the National Cancer Institute who peers at HIV with electron microscopes. The virus's genetic material sits inside a ...

HIV is like a jack-in-the-box. When the viruses bump into particular cells in the immune system, the viruses' shells pop open and their genes enter the cells. Experimental therapies for HIV could ...
