Importance of the short cytoplasmic domain of the feline immunodeficiency virus transmembrane glycoprotein for fusion activity and envelope glycoprotein incorporation into virions
(Universidad de Belgrano - Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales - Proyectos de Investigación, 2007)The mature form of the envelope (Env) glycoprotein of lentiviruses is a heterodimer composed of the surface (SU) and transmembrane (TM) subunits. Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) possesses a TM glycoprotein with a ... -
Mutations at the C-terminus of the simian immunodeficiency virus envelope glycoprotein affect gp120-gp41 stability on virions
(Universidad de Belgrano - Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales - Proyectos de Investigación, 2005)The transmembrane (TM) subunit of the envelope (Env) glycoprotein of the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) contains an unusually long cytoplasmic domain of 164 amino acids. Previously, we identified domains in the SIV ... -
Palmitoylation of the feline immunodeficiency virus envelope glycoprotein and its effect on fusion activity and envelope incorporation into virions
(Universidad de Belgrano - Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales - Proyectos de Investigación, 2012)The feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) envelope glycoprotein (Env) possesses a short cytoplasmic domain of 53 amino acids containing four highly conserved cysteines at Env positions 804, 811, 815 and 848. Since ... -
Replacement of the V3 Domain in the Surface Subunit of the Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Envelope Glycoprotein with the Equivalent Region of a T Cell-Tropic Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Results in a Chimeric Surface Protein That Efficiently Binds to CXCR4
(Universidad de Belgrano - Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales - Proyectos de Investigación, 2014)Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and the T cell-tropic strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) share the use of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 for cell entry. To study this process further we developed a ...
