Two heptad repeat regions in the ectodomain of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transmembrane subunit (gp41) self-assemble into a six-helix bundle structure that is critical for virus entry. Immunizations with peptides corresponding to these regions generated antibodies specific to the receptor-activated conformations of gp41.
人类免疫缺陷病毒1型(HIV-1)跨膜亚基(gp41)胞外域中的两个七肽重复区域自组装成六螺旋束结构,这对病毒进入至关重要。用对应于这些区域的肽进行免疫可产生针对gp41受体激活构象的特异性抗体。
