Monomerization of Viral Entry Inhibitor Griffithsin Elucidates the Relationship between Multivalent Binding to Carbohydrates and anti-HIV Activity

Mutations were introduced to the domain-swapped homodimer of the antiviral lectin griffithsin (GRFT). Whereas several single and double mutants remained dimeric, insertion of either two or four amino acids at the dimerization interface resulted in a monomeric form of the protein (mGRFT). Monomeric c...
