The human CXCR-4 molecule serves as a second receptor for primary, T-cell-tropic, and laboratory-adapted human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates. Here we show that murine CXCR-4 can support the entry of some of these HIV-1 isolates. Differences between mouse and human CXCR-4 in the ability to function as an HIV-1 receptor are determined by sequences in the second extracellular loop of the CXCR-4 protein.
人类CXCR-4分子作为原发性、嗜T细胞性和实验室适应性人类免疫缺陷病毒1型(HIV-1)毒株的第二种受体。在此我们表明,小鼠CXCR-4能够支持其中一些HIV-1毒株的进入。小鼠和人类CXCR-4在作为HIV-1受体发挥功能的能力上的差异,由CXCR-4蛋白第二个细胞外环中的序列所决定。
