Understanding the structure of the "AIDS" virus
(Published at the 13th International AIDS Conference, Durban, South Africa, July, 2000)
I "break the silence" by experimenting with the truth

Fig 1. A model illustrating peptide synthesis of the impossible "AIDS" virus.

The AIDS virus (fig. 1) has an extremely complicated (2) structure. For this reason I believe no promise of a cure exists for those infected.

The cross diameter of the virus that causes AIDS is approximately 50 nanometers. It would take two million of these viruses just to cover the tip of a sewing needle one layer deep. It would take 2,000 of these layers stacked one on top of the other, or 2 billion viruses, to make the mass just visible to the naked eye.

The virus that causes "AIDS" is spherical in shape. The outer shell of the virus is known as the viral envelope. Embedded in the viral envelope is a complex protein known as env, which consists of an outer, protruding glycoprotein cap and stem. Within the viral envelope is an HIV protein matrix, and within this is the viral core or capsid, which is made of another viral protein (core antigen). The major elements contained within the viral core are two single strands of HIV RNA, a protein (nucleocapsid), and three enzyme proteins (reverse transcriptase, protease and integrase).

The second layer, or HIV protein matrix, represents up to one thousand amino acids. If one were to enlarge this matrix to an analytical viewable size, it would form a ring that would be equivalent to the height of a two story building. If we consider 5 amino acids (fig. 2) in the 5th coupling cycle, we get 3.2 million resin bound pentapeptides (3).

Taking only 38 residues out and doing a standard resin bound peptide synthesis would require a mass of resin equivalent to the mass of planet earth. This is a daunting task to say the least. To identify all of the pentapeptides using conventional methods would take 2,191 years. However, with the dual auto robotic peptide synthesizer system which I developed, the task would take 461 years.

The Robotic Surface Digitizer, as described in the previous section, is a device I developed to identify and remove the AIDS virus from the blood of infected individuals. In essence it is used to decontaminate the blood. It has been described previously in detail in a paper that was published in the 12th World "AIDS" conference in Geneva, Switzerland June 28 - July 3, 1998.
