Antiviral properties of two trimeric recombinant gp41 proteins
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov › pmc › articles
Results. Two soluble trimeric recombinant gp41 proteins, termed Rgp41B and Rgp41A were designed. Both comprise the N- and C-terminal heptad repeat regions of the ectodomain of HIV-1 gp41, connected by a 7-residue hydrophilic linker, in order to mimic the trimeric fusogenic state of the transmembrane glycoprotein.

The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is mainly transmitted through sexual contact. To infect its host, HIV-1 employs its viral membrane surface trimeric envelope glycoprotein, composed of the receptor binding domain gp120 and the membrane anchored fusion protein subunit gp41.
