Description
HIV2 Surface protein gp120 Recombinant Protein (C-His)
HIV2 Surface protein gp120 Recombinant Protein (C-His) is a recombinant protein expressed in mammalian cells, spanning Lys23-Thr501, with a C-terminal His tag. Predicted molecular weight: 58.11 kDa. Purity: >90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Supplied lyophilized from a solution in PBS pH 7.4, 1 mM EDTA, 4% Trehalose, 1% Mannitol. Applications: ELISA, immunogen, SDS-PAGE and Western blot. Envelope glycoprotein gp160 (Surface protein gp120) is a ~98 kDa protein. The surface protein gp120 (SU) attaches the virus to the host lymphoid cell by binding to the primary receptor CD4. For research use only.
This interaction induces a structural rearrangement creating a high affinity binding site for a chemokine coreceptor like CXCR4 and/or CCR5. This peculiar 2 stage receptor-interaction strategy allows gp120 to maintain the highly conserved coreceptor-binding site in a cryptic conformation, protected from neutralizing antibodies. Since CD4 also displays a binding site for the disulfide-isomerase P4HB/PDI, a P4HB/PDI-CD4-CXCR4-gp120 complex may form. In that complex, P4HB/PDI could reach and reduce gp120 disulfide bonds, causing major conformational changes in gp120.
