is coated with spikes representing trimers of the envelope glycoprotein (Env). Studies over more than a decade have generated a picture of how the external Env subunit (gp120) interacts first with ...

This paper revealed a critical stage of HIV infection: the viral surface glycoprotein gp120 binding the CD4 receptor on a vulnerable T cell. By discovering aspects of the mechanism by which the viral ...

Before fusion of the HIV viral envelope and host cell membrane can occur, an HIV glycoprotein complex consisting of glycoproteins gp41 and gp120 must bind with the CD4 receptor on the membrane of ...

Peptidomimetics inhibitors of the HIV-1 envelope gp120 glycoprotein image from the Drexel Biochemistry Graduate Program. Target recognition by Bacitracin research image from the Drexel Biochemistry ...

Further experiments examined the effects of anti-CD3, TARC, 6Ckine, IL-8, MIP-3 /LARC/Exodus, MIP-3 /ELC/ Exodus-3 and HIV gp120 glycoprotein on mRNA expression by PBMC and purified T cells.
