Human rhinovirus, computer model
Human rhinovirus (HRV) with intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), computer model. This image was created using UCSF Chimera molecular modelling software and data from cryo-electron microscopy. It shows the protein shell of the virus (red, yellow, purple), known as the capsid, with ICAM-1 molecules (light blue) attached. HRV is the virus that causes the common cold. ICAM-1 is a protein located on the surface of leukocyte and endothelial cells. It binds strongly to HRV. Cryo-electron microscopes fire multi-angled beams of electrons at specimens that are kept at minus 150 degrees Celsius. The microscope collects slices of data that are constructed by programs, such as UCSF Chimera, into 3-D models

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer model of the human rhinovirus (HRV) with intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1). Created using UCSF Chimera molecular modelling software and data from cryo-electron microscopy, this image provides an intricate visualization of the virus responsible for the common cold. The vibrant colors depict the protein shell of HRV, known as the capsid, in shades of red, yellow, and purple. Attached to this viral structure are ICAM-1 molecules represented in light blue. ICAM-1 is a crucial protein found on leukocyte and endothelial cells' surfaces that exhibits a strong binding affinity to HRV. To capture this remarkable image, cryo-electron microscopes were employed to fire multi-angled beams of electrons at specimens maintained at an extremely low temperature of minus 150 degrees Celsius. These microscopes collected slices of data which were then reconstructed into three-dimensional models using programs like UCSF Chimera. The photograph not only highlights the structural details but also emphasizes the significance of these proteins in virology and immunology research. It offers valuable insights into how HRV interacts with its host cells through ICAM-1 receptors. This scientific illustration represents a breakthrough in our understanding of pathogenic viruses and their mechanisms.
