Product Description: HIV gp120 (318-327) is a short sequence of the HIV-1 strain IIIB envelope peptide (rgpgrafvti) that corresponds to the conserved C-terminal region of the glycoprotein. HIV gp120 (318-327) is part of the HIV vaccine V3 peptide epitope, also known as the I10 peptide. However, HIV gp120 (318-327) lacks the A2 anchor residues recognized by epitope-specific CTLs but has structural features that confer promiscuous A2 binding[1][2].
Applications: COVID-19-anti-virus
Formula: C48H80N16O12
