Although human blood plasma contains molecules that inhibit the activity of HIV-1, their identity is largely unknown. Münch et al. (2007) now identify a peptide corresponding to a portion of alpha1-antitrypsin that potently inhibits entry of HIV-1 into host cells by binding to a hydrophobic segment of the viral envelope glycoprotein gp41.
尽管人类血浆中含有抑制HIV-1活性的分子,但其具体成分大多未知。Münch等人(2007年)现已鉴定出一种与α1-抗胰蛋白酶一部分相对应的肽,该肽通过与病毒包膜糖蛋白gp41的疏水片段结合,有效抑制HIV-1进入宿主细胞。
