DOI: 10.1002/pmic.201500215 Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is the etiological agent responsible for human acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Cure of the disease is not feasible due to latent infection. Quantitative glycoproteomics are used to show a distinct glycoprotein profile between HIV latently infected and uninfected cells. Targeting the changed glycoproteins would lead to isolation and eradication of the latently infected cells. For details, see research article by Weiming Yang et al., on pages 1872–1880.
