EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate molecular model of Adeno-associated virus (aV), a non-enveloped virus known for its role in gene therapy. The image reveals the core protein of this harmless virus, which envelops and protects its genetic material. Against a striking black background, the spherical shape of the virus is highlighted, resembling a mesmerizing globe. The illustration represents an important breakthrough in biology and virology as it sheds light on the structural aspects of this biochemical entity. With meticulous detail, it unveils the complex arrangement of proteins that form the viral capsid, providing valuable insights into its function and potential applications. Adeno-associated viruses like aV are particularly fascinating due to their ability to infect humans without causing any harm or disease. This unique characteristic has made them invaluable tools in gene therapy research and development. Scientists harness their benign nature to deliver therapeutic genes into targeted cells within our bodies. Louise Hughes from Science Photo Library masterfully captures this molecular marvel through her artwork. The precision-cutout technique employed adds depth and dimensionality to the image while emphasizing its biological significance. In summary, this visually stunning print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the beauty and scientific importance of Adeno-associated virus's molecular structure—a testament to ongoing advancements in microbiology, biochemistry, and molecular biology research.
