Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics and the University of Hamburg’s
Heinrich Pette Institute for Experimental Virology and Immunology have found ways on how they can remove AIDS virus from infected cells, thus, making them healthy once again.
Researchers at the above institutions created an enzyme (Tre) that cleaves (removes) HIV’s (virus that causes AIDS) genetic material from the infected cells, allows reorganization of the host’s genetic material and free living cells of the infective agent. The recombinant DNA technology was one of the techniques used in the experiment by using restriction endonucleases, a class of enzymes that cleaves (detach from end to end) specific sequence of genes in a specific cell’s or organism’s or, as in the case of viruses, particle’s genetic material, in order to get the desired sequence of genes.
Through this wonderful research provides hope for the estimated 40 million individuals who are currently suffering the havoc of HIV/AIDS disease.
