HIV-1 YU2 GP120 ENVELOPE GLYCOPROTEIN COMPLEXED WITH CD4 AND INDUCED NEUTRALIZING ANTIBODY 17B

Overview

The conserved surface of the HIV-1 gp120 envelope glycoprotein that binds, to the HIV-1 coreceptor is protected from humoral recognition by multiple, layers of camouflage. Here we present sequence and genomic analyses for 12, antibodies that pierce these defenses and determine the crystal structures, of 5. The data reveal mechanisms and atomic-level details for three, unusual immune features: posttranslational mimicry of coreceptor by, tyrosine sulfation of antibody, an alternative molecular mechanism, controlling such sulfation, and highly selective V(H)-gene usage. When, confronted by extraordinary viral defenses, the immune system unveils, novel adaptive capabilities, with tyrosine sulfation enhancing the, vocabulary of antigen recognition.

About this Structure

1RZK is a Single protein structure of sequence from Homo sapiens and Human immunodeficiency virus 1 with NDG and NAG as ligands. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
