Molecular Dynamics Simulations Reveal the HIV-1 Vpu Transmembrane Protein to Form Stable Pentamers
The human immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV-1) Vpu protein is 81 residues long and has two cytoplasmic and one transmembrane (TM) helical domains. The TM domain oligomerizes to form a monovalent cation selective ion channel and facilitates viral release from host cells. Exactly how many TM domains...
