Incredibly proud of this structure and Yao Shen work. I could not have anticipated how much it would explain @j_ortega_McGill Joseph E. Peters McGill Medicine and Health Sciences Structural basis for DNA targeting by the Tn7 transposon biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

🎉 Exciting news! We're hiring PDRAs starting May 2025, funded by a Wellcome Discovery Award! Join our team to unravel how HIV-1 capsids exploit host cofactors during early infection & uncover what makes the pandemic HIV-1 lineage unique. Apply now: bit.ly/4hyTBae

Excited to share our work on HIV-1 nuclear import! Using purified HIV-1 cores & permeabilized T cells, we recapitulated functional nuclear import, allowing high-throughput cryo-correlative cryoET imaging of nearly 2,000 HIV-1 cores. Check out our preprint for exciting insights!

🥳 It's officially out!!! Curious how HIV-1 enters the nucleus to infect non-dividing cells? Check out our recent work now published in Nature Microbiology. Grateful to EMBO for supporting my postdoc journey. Zhen Hou the Peijun Zhang Lab STRUBIOxford eBIC Beamline

Researchers at STRUBIOxford have discovered how HIV-1 breaches the cell's most guarded barrier. A major step in visualising #HIV at its most critical stage, their findings could help us understand how to stop it from happening 🔬 Find out more 👉 ndm.ox.ac.uk/news/study-rev…
