The Membrane-Proximal Tyrosine-Based Sorting Signal of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 gp41 Is Required for Optimal Viral Infectivity
13 Jan 2004
Abstract excerpt
The membrane-proximal tyrosine-based sorting motif in the cytoplasmic domain of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 Env glycoprotein is important for endocytosis from the plasma membrane, basolateral targeting of viral budding in polarized epithelial cells, and polarized budding from a localized region of the lymphocyte plasma membrane. To study the role of the Env sorting motif (Y712XXL) in infectivity, the...
