Determinants of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Resistance to Membrane-Anchored gp41-Derived Peptides
28 Jul 2005
Abstract excerpt
The expression of a membrane-anchored gp41-derived peptide (M87) has been shown to confer protection from infection through human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) (Hildinger et al., J. Virol. 75:3038-3042, 2001). In an effort to characterize the mechanism of action of this membrane-anchored peptide in comparison to the soluble peptide T-20, we selected resistant variants of HIV-1(NL4-3) and HIV-1(BaL) by...
