In the new study, scientists used parainfluenza virus, one of the viruses that causes common colds, and found that delivery of a corrected version of the CFTR gene to 25 percent of cells grown in a tissue culture model that resembles the lining of the human airways was sufficient to restore normal function back to the tissue.
Topics include macromolecular modeling with Rosetta, protein interaction networks, structural biology of the tumor suppressor p53, maturation of iron-sulfur proteins in eukaryotes, and cystic fibrosis therapies based on CFTR function.
