Funded Activity Summary

For HIV to successful infect a target cell, it must properly remove the outer layers of its protective gears (outer viral protein coats) to allow the viral genetic materials to be replicate (duplicate and multiplied) for the generation of their ‘offspring viruses’. This process is known as viral uncoating, and it is arguably one of the least understood areas of HIV. In this proposal, we will use a number of complementary state-of-the-arts research tools to characterize the HIV uncoating process.
