HIV-1 gp41 contains two sites for interaction with several proteins on the helper T-lymphoid cell line, H9

Abstract

HIV-1 gp41 contains two putative binding sites to H9 cells. These sites may be located within Env amino acids 591-605 (ERYLKDQQLLGIWGC) and 651-665 (TLLEESQNQQEKNEQ). Using two different techniques, five proteins (37, 40, 55, 97 and 108 kD) were identified in H9 lysates as possible candidates for gp41 binding.
