Dr. Tao study focused on RNA viruses

Dr. Tao study focused on RNA viruses, of which she is most fascinated by the influenza A virus studies, including those caused the spread of the annual human influenza type A influenza virus and the recent dissemination of H5N1 avian influenza virus. .influenza virus containing the RNA genome, they use a different set of their animal protein factor responsible for the host copy of their genome. Recently, Dr. Tao's discussion group solved the crystal structure of Moncler influenza virus nucleoprotein, it is necessary for viral RNA replication of a highly conserved protein.
crystal structure of influenza virus nucleoprotein published in the journal NATURE in 2006, in the nuclear The crystal structure of the protein found some very interesting targets, new drugs against the influenza virus has important research value. .2006 Achievements: .find cracked H5N1 Virus .2006 年 12 month's issue British science magazine Institute of Chemical Technology (now the East China University of Technology), University of Helsinki, Finland, after obtaining a Ph.D., is chief technology officer for Finnish Enfucell. Last year, he developed low-cost environmentally friendly paper battery can be used as smart cards, musical greeting cards, e-newspapers, power, can be used for RFID (radio frequency identification) tag.
