Abstract excerpt
Here we report the expression of HIV-1 gp160 and its mutated proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Two strong hydrophobic regions, aa 511-537 and aa 679-703, were predicted by GCG Wisconsin Package software and removed to investigate the solubility of the mutated gp160 (gp160Delta12). The results showed that gp160Delta12 assumes high solubility as to be present in supernatant of cell lysate exclusively. The...
