The new petascale Blue Waters supercomputer at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois with this super impressive processing power has been able to simulate the largest structure ever solved - a structure of 64 million atoms - the structure of the HIV capsid . The researchers found that the HIV protein shell comprises 216 hexagons and 12 pentagons

The proteins in the hexagons and pentagons were identical but the angles through which they attache...

When a person is infected with HIV, the immune system tries to destroy the virus. In order to halt those attacks, HIV undergoes millions of genetic mutations a day. In most cases, this tactic of systematically out manoeuvring the bodies defense system enables HIV to defeat the immune system.

However Researchers who created the first map of human resistance used a supercomputer to analyze immune system-triggered mutations in the genomes of a variety of strains of HIV from more than 1,000...
