3D Animation of HIV Replication

This is an outstanding 3D animation of HIV replication cycle. I especially loved the entry part, which is like watching a science fiction movie.

The animation is fairly accurate representation of what we know about the this viruses life cycle today, except the part on entry of viral DNA into nucleus. Based on our current knowledge, import of viral DNA into nucleus is not dependent on integrase but other viral and host proteins that are still elusive. Integrase is however necessary for the integration of virus DNA into host genome.

    [...] These are getting a lot of press lately because they appear to work well and they target parts of the viral life-cycle that available anti-retroviral drugs do not. Who knows, maybe I will end up working with these [...]

    reverse transcriptase doesnt just run through the genome twice. its primed by cellular t-RNA (which anneals to the pbs sequence), then the five prime end is replicated, then rnase removes the hybridized, newly constructed primer and it(the primer) migrates to the 3′ end and the minus strand dna is produced (as rna is removed). Plus strand Dna primes the polypurine tract downstream of the env gene, and the five prime end of the plus strand is synthd by td dna dependent dna poly. Rnase degrades the trna and ppt before a second jump occurs, this time the plus strand of dna binds the pbs by the 3′end of the - dna strand– and only then do you get to synth the rest and have a dsdna viral genome

    This is really cool stuff. Listening to it saved me a lot of work.

  19. Dr.Farag Salama Says:

    It is very useful educational film

  20. Marvin Magarian, Clinical Lab Scientist Says:

    Not only does this demonstration animate HIV viral replication, it demonstrates the central dogma of molecular biology which is Replication of DNA, Transcription of RNA, and Translation into protein synthesis. Excellent work.

  21. DR. Divakar Says:

    beautiful animation for teaching!

  22. Dr. Koskey S Says:

    Good animation for learning and teaching or explaining. how do i get it for offline use?

  23. Prakash Says:

    A fantastic Education Material on understanding the concept of Viral Replication.

    I will be greatful If I could get a Downloadable Animation for the benefit of our Students.
