Abstract excerpt
The HIV-1 envelope protein is a glycoprotein composed of 120 kD and 41 kD subunits. It contains 30-38 potential asparagine-linked glycosylation sites which have been shown to play a role in CD4 binding, virus uptake, and cytopathogenicity. Several inhibitors of oligosaccharide attachment or modif...
