Abstract excerpt
Purification and in vitro protein-folding schemes were developed to produce monodisperse samples of the mature wild-type HIV-2 protease (PR2), enabling a comprehensive set of biochemical and biophysical studies to assess the dissociation of the dimeric protease. An E37K substitution in PR2 significantly retards autoproteolytic cleavage during expression. Furthermore, it permits convenient measurement of the dimer...
