Virion - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Overview of Virology Methods: Cultivation, Isolation, Purification

Various methods are employed in virology, including virus cultivation in different cells, virus isolation, and virus purification through centrifugation. Structural investigations, virion component-based techniques, and virus infectivity-based techniques are also common in virology research. Underst

Potential of Tat-Based Therapeutic Vaccine in HIV Treatment

A phase 1 clinical trial is underway for a Tat.Oyi-based therapeutic vaccine targeting the virulence factor Tat in HIV. Tat plays a crucial role in viral gene expression and immune system modulation. Inhibiting Tat could disrupt the viral life cycle, block virion release, and potentially reactivate
