HIV-1 Vif induces a unique and prolonged pseudo-metaphase arrest by disrupting phosphatase feedback regulation at the kinetochore.
Dr. Ochsenbauer-Jambor investigates the role of DC-SIGN in the capture and trans-infection of HIV-1 with special emphasis on virion internalization pathways and the acquisition of selective ...
