BBC NEWS
It appears that only a single change to the human gene is needed to enable it to block HIV infection.
I think this is rather exciting news, researchers have identified that changing just one amino acid "building block' in one protein can switch a cell from susceptible to insusceptible to long-term HIV infection. Wow! That seems like something to me, though granted it doesn't mean much in the short-term but hopefully this research can go somewhere fast.
