Protein Structural Disorder Of The Envelope V3 Loop Contributes To The Switch In Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Cell Tropism

2017-04-24

Abstract excerpt

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope gp120 is partly an intrinsically disordered (unstructured/disordered) protein as it contains regions that do not fold into well-defined protein structures. These disordered regions play important roles in HIV's life cycle, particularly, V3 loop-dependent cell entry, which determines how the virus uses two coreceptors on immune cells, the chemokine receptors CCR5...
