Abstract
Two heptad repeat regions in the ectodomain of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transmembrane subunit (gp41) self-assemble into a six-helix bundle structure that is critical for virus entry. Immunizations with peptides corresponding to these regions generated antibodies specific to the receptor-activated conformations of gp41.Entities:
