| Images | | | Lattice maps for immature HIV molecules
The 3D computer reconstruction shows the immature Gag lattice of HIV that matures to form the protein shell of the infecious virus. Maps are shown in perspective such that hexamers on the rear surface of the particle appear smaller. The side of the particle toward the viewer lacks ordered Gag. EMBL. 2009. | | | | Simplified representation of HIV lifecycle
A graphical overview of HIV infection, starting with the virus interacting with cell surface receptors, then incorporating its genome into the host DNA, and ultimately transforming to the mature infectious form capable of fusing with a new susceptible cell. EMBL. 2009. | |

| Links | | | HIV Databases
The HIV databases contain data on HIV genetic sequences, immunological epitopes, drug resistance-associated mutations, and vaccine trials. The website also gives access to a large number of tools that can be used to analyze these data. Produced by Los Alamos National Laboratory and funded by NIAID.
