A new vaccine design uses folded DNA to steer the immune system toward producing the rare immune cells needed to make protective antibodies against HIV.
DNA origami sounds like science fiction, but for HIV vaccine researchers it is becoming a practical design tool. By folding strands of DNA into tiny three-dimensional scaffolds, scientists can arrange ...
The use of DNA scaffolds could mark a turning point in HIV vaccine design. Scientists at Scripps Research and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a new vaccine platform based ...
