The Viral/Molecular Core (Core D) provides reagents, facilities, lab services, consultation & training in support of innovative, multidisciplinary and translational HIV/AIDS research on the Penn/CHOP/Wistar campus with the broad goal of advancing collaborative research in the pathogenesis, treatment, and prevention of HIV/AIDS, serving CFAR investigators from multiple programs. The specific Core activities supporting this goal are to provide: ¿ Virology services including a repository of HIV-1 prototype, primary and mutant strains; virus isolation from patient samples; amplification of virus working stocks; structurally intact inactivated virions; HIV p24 and SIV p27 ELISA assay; and other viral services. ¿ Molecular services including support for realtime qPCR along with reagents, optimized primer-probe sets and custom primer/probe development; viral genotyping or cloning from clinical specimens; molecular virology support for translational research programs; and in the next cycle a new high density pyrosequencing service. ¿ Education, training, consultation and leadership in molecular virology activities including training in BSL3 practices for CFAR members lab personnel; training and consultation in virological and molecular techniques for CFAR investigator personnel; facilitating the dissemination and adoption of new technologies; and collaboration with and support of other Cores and campus programs in their HIV/AIDS research-related educational efforts. During the current funding cycle the Core provided support to 46 CFAR investigators, contributing to novel gene therapy approaches to HIV infection; better understanding of integration and establishment of latency; new approaches to vaccine design; advances in viral entry and resistance to entry inhibitors; effects of neuroimmune mediators & drugs of abuse; HIV neuropathogenesis; and other areas. The V/M Core has evolved significantly over the past 9 years in response to CFAR member needs and user feedback, levels of utilization, and internal & external advisory input, and collaborates closely with other CFAR Cores in support of these goals. The Core has been directed since its inception by Drs. Ronald Collman (director) and Luis Montaner (co-director) and, going forward, will be joined by Dr. F. (Rick) Bushman (co-director) to supervise the introduction and dissemination of new molecular sequencing technologies to CFAR investigators.

病毒/分子核心（核心 D）提供试剂、设施、实验室服务、咨询和培训 支持 Penn/CHOP/Wistar 的创新、多学科和转化型艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究 校园的广泛目标是推进发病机制、治疗和疾病方面的合作研究 预防艾滋病毒/艾滋病，为多个项目的 CFAR 调查员提供服务。具体的核心活动 支持这一目标的目标是： ¿ 病毒学服务，包括 HIV-1 原型、原代和突变株储存库；病毒分离 来自患者样本；病毒工作库存的扩增；结构完整的灭活病毒颗粒； HIV p24 和 SIV p27 ELISA 测定；和其他病毒式服务。 ¿ 分子服务，包括支持实时 qPCR 以及试剂、优化的引物探针 套件和定制引物/探针开发；临床标本的病毒基因分型或克隆；分子 对转化研究项目的病毒学支持；并在下一个周期出现新的高密度 焦磷酸测序服务。 ¿ 分子病毒学活动的教育、培训、咨询和领导，包括以下方面的培训： CFAR 成员实验室人员的 BSL3 实践；病毒学和分子学方面的培训和咨询 CFAR 调查人员的技术；促进新技术的传播和采用； 与其他核心和校园项目在艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究相关方面的合作和支持 教育努力。 在当前的资助周期内，核心为 46 名 CFAR 调查员提供了支持，为 HIV感染的新基因治疗方法；更好地理解整合和建立 延迟；疫苗设计的新方法；病毒进入和对进入抑制剂的抵抗力方面的进展；效果 神经免疫介质和滥用药物； HIV 神经发病机制；和其他领域。 V/M 核心有 在过去的 9 年里，为了响应 CFAR 成员的需求和用户反馈， 利用率、内部和外部咨询意见，并与其他 CFAR 核心密切合作提供支持 这些目标。核心自成立以来一直由博士指导。罗纳德·科尔曼（导演）和路易斯 Montaner（联合主任），未来将由 F.（Rick）Bushman 博士（联合主任）加入监督 向 CFAR 研究人员介绍和传播新的分子测序技术。
