significant $1.5 million to be spent over three years.
Their goal? Find a new approach to block the virus, which has been gaining
resistance against some older drugs.
Strosberg’s proposal was to employ the $10 million robot Florida taxpayers
purchased for Scripps back in 2005, and test hundreds of thousands of possibly
effective drug-like compounds for a few that showed an ability to latch onto a
key protein that makes up the outer shell of the HIV virus.
Disrupting the viral shell might prevent new virus particles from forming, and
thus halt the progress and spread of the disease, he reasoned.
“Because of the growing resistance of HIV against current treatments, a new,
differently targeted approach to treating the disease is urgently needed,”
