Description preview

The HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env), a homotrimer of gp120-gp41 heterodimers, mediates viral entry into
host cells. The gp120 subunit engages host receptors, while the gp41 subunit contains a fusion peptide (FP)

that is inserted into the host membrane to induce host and virus membrane fusion. Prior to its binding to host

receptors, the HIV-1 Env…
