HIV-1 Envelope Glycoprotein Variable Loops Are Indispensable for Envelope Structural Integrity and Virus Entry

HIV-1 envelope (Env) glycoprotein is a trimer of heterodimer of gp120 and gp41, and derives from a trimeric glycoprotein precursor, gp160. Gp120 contains five conserved regions that are interspersed with 5 variable loop regions (V1–V5). Env variations in variable loop length and amino acid compositi...
