Investigators have used a novel approach to identify specific amino acids in the protein structure of HIV that appear critical to the ability of the virus to function and replicate. They also have ...
Find out what you need to know about the CD4:CD8 ratio test. Learn why your doctor asks for it, what information they get from it, and what it means for you.
The CD8 protein is an integral member of the T-cell activation cluster 13 and, unlike the TCR and MHC class I, is a monomorphic protein. A high-resolution crystal structure is available for both ...
These essential proteins help the virus assemble 4 critical structures and are known as the S (Spike), N (Nucleocapsid), M (Membrane), and E (Envelope) proteins. CD8+ T cells are able to recognize ...
Variances in critical protein may guide fate of those infected with SARS CoV-2 Peer-Reviewed Publication. Arizona State University ...
We also generated protein microarrays using S protein along with other SARS-CoV-2 antigens (i.e., nucleocapsid) to detect SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in COVID-19 convalescent individuals. Our current ...
Co-authors with Benveniste and Qin in the study, "Protein kinase CK2 controls CD8 + T cell effector and memory function during infection," are Wei Yang, Hairong Wei, William J. Turbitt, Jessica A ...
