Abstract excerpt
We introduced mutations into the HIV-1 major homology region (MHR; capsids 153-172) and adjacent C-terminal region to analyze their effects on virus-like particle (VLP) assembly, membrane affinity, and the multimerization of the Gag structural protein. Results indicate that alanine substitutions...
