Heparin enhances the furin cleavage of HIV‐1 gp160 peptides

Infectious HIV‐1 requires gp160 cleavage by furin at the REKR(511)↓ motif (site1) into the gp120/gp41 complex, whereas the KAKR(503) (site2) sequence remains uncleaved. We synthesized 41mer and 51mer peptides, comprising site1 and site2, to study their conformation and in vitro furin processing. We...
