Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) targets important cells of our immune system, making infected individuals more ...

Researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics and Heidelberg University have observed largely intact HIV-1 capsids as ...

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are essential structures that facilitate the transport of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm in eukaryotic cells. These large protein complexes ...

This communication is regulated by the nuclear pores. Each nuclear pore is a large complex of proteins that allows small molecules and ions to freely pass, or diffuse, into or out of the nucleus.

reliable general purpose monoclonal antibody which recognizes a related family of NPC proteins; believed to recognize the repeated FXFG repeat sequence in nuceloporins including p62, p152 and p90 and ...

Their findings revealed that the capsid, which is cone-shaped, utilises its narrower end to penetrate the nuclear pore ...

Scientists demonstrate how T4 bacteriophages can calibrate super-resolution microscopes with nanometer accuracy, enabling ...

The second focuses on selective transport through the nuclear pore complex. We are use microscopy, nuclear magentic resonance and other biophysical techniques complemented with modeling to approach ...

“With the high-speed AFM we could, for the first time, peer inside native nuclear pore complexes only forty nanometers in size,” study coauthor Roderick Lim of the University of Basel said in a ...
