Synergy and allostery in ligand binding by HIV-1 Nef
2020-11-05
Abstract excerpt
The Nef protein of human and simian immunodeficiency viruses (HIV and SIV, respectively) boosts viral pathogenicity through its interactions with host cell proteins. Nef has a folded core domain and large flexible regions, each carrying several protein interaction sites. By combining the polyvalency intrinsic to unstructured regions with the binding selectivity and strength of a 3D folded domain, Nef can bind to m...
