A broad HIV-1 inhibitor blocks envelope glycoprotein transitions critical for entry

Binding to the primary receptor, CD4, triggers conformational changes in the metastable envelope glycoprotein (Env) trimer (gp120(3)/gp41(3)) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) that are important for virus entry into host cells. These changes include an “opening” of the trimer, creation of a bi...
