Oligomeric structure of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 envelope protein on the virion surface.
The envelope protein (Env) of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 forms homo-oligomers in the endoplasmic reticulum. The oligomeric structure of Env is maintained after cleavage in a Golgi compartment and transport to the surfaces of infected cells, where incorporation into budding virions takes place. Here, we use biophysical techniques to assess the oligomeric valency of virion-associated Env...
متن کاملDeterminants of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 envelope glycoprotein activation by soluble CD4 and monoclonal antibodies.
Infection by some human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates is enhanced by the binding of subneutralizing concentrations of soluble receptor, soluble CD4 (sCD4), or monoclonal antibodies directed against the viral envelope glycoproteins. In this work, we studied the abilities of different antibodies to mediate activation of the envelope glycoproteins of a primary HIV-1 isolate, YU2, ...
متن کاملOligomeric and conformational properties of a proteolytically mature, disulfide-stabilized human immunodeficiency virus type 1 gp140 envelope glycoprotein.
We describe the further properties of a protein, designated SOS gp140, wherein the association of the gp120 and gp41 subunits of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope glycoprotein is stabilized by an intersubunit disulfide bond. HIV-1(JR-FL) SOS gp140, proteolytically uncleaved gp140 (gp140(UNC)), and gp120 were expressed in stably transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells and ...
متن کاملIdentification of determinants on a dualtropic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 envelope glycoprotein that confer usage of CXCR4.
The chemokine receptors CCR5 and CXCR4, in combination with CD4, mediate cellular entry of macrophage-tropic (M-tropic) and T-cell-tropic strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), respectively, while dualtropic viruses can use either receptor. We have constructed a panel of chimeric viruses and envelope glycoproteins in which various domains of the dualtropic HIV-1(DH12) gp160 wer...
متن کاملTopogenic analysis of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 envelope glycoprotein, gp160, in microsomal membranes
The orientation in cellular membranes of the 856 amino acid envelope glycoprotein precursor, gp160, of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 was investigated in vitro. Variants of the env gene were transcribed using the bacteriophage SP6 promoter, translated using a rabbit reticulocyte lysate, and translocated into canine pancreatic microsomal membranes. Immunoprecipitation studies of gp160 varia...
