HIV particle, computer artwork. HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) causes AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome). The virus consists of an RNA genome, surrounded by an icosahedral (20- sided) protein nucleocapsid (coat). The whole virus is enclosed in an envelope derived from the host cells plasma membrane. The envelope has viral proteins integrated into it, including glycoprotein spikes that aid its attachment to host cells. HIV infects the immune systems T- lymphocytes, ultimately killing them, leading to a very weak immune system.

EDITORS COMMENTS

This print showcases the intricate structure of an HIV particle, a virus responsible for causing AIDS. Created through computer artwork, this illustration provides a detailed glimpse into the biology and pathogenic nature of this devastating virus. At its core, the HIV particle consists of an RNA genome surrounded by a protein nucleocapsid with a unique icosahedral shape. The entire virus is enclosed within an envelope derived from the host cell's plasma membrane. This envelope integrates viral proteins, including glycoprotein spikes that aid in attaching to host cells. HIV primarily targets T-lymphocytes in the immune system and ultimately leads to their destruction, resulting in severe immunodeficiency. Through this image, we gain insight into how these tiny spikes play a crucial role in infecting and compromising our body's defense mechanism. The significance of understanding HIV lies not only in its medical implications but also in unraveling its complex structure at a microscopic level. This artful representation serves as a reminder of ongoing research efforts aimed at combating this global health crisis. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured the essence of virology and microbiology through this visually striking piece. It stands as both an educational tool for those studying viruses and as a testament to humanity's determination to combat infectious diseases like HIV/AIDS.
