Site-Selective Solid-Phase Synthesis of a CCR5 Sulfopeptide Library To Interrogate HIV Binding and Entry
25 Jun 2014
Abstract excerpt
Tyrosine (Tyr) sulfation is a common post-translational modification that is implicated in a variety of important biological processes, including the fusion and entry of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1). A number of sulfated Tyr (sTyr) residues on the N-terminus of the CCR5 chemokine receptor are involved in a crucial binding interaction with the gp120 HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein. Despite the...
