Abstract excerpt
We have used a combination of genetic and immunological techniques to explore how amino acid substitutions in the second conserved (C2) domain of gp120 from human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) affect the conformation of the protein. It was reported previously (R. L. Willey, E. K. Ross, A. J. Buckler-White, T. S. Theodore, and M. A. Martin. J. Viol. 63:3595-3600, 1989) that an asparagine-glutamine (N/Q)...
