Gag HIV-1

This sequence codes for the coat protein of the human immunodeficiency virus, which mediates the essential events in virion assembly, including binding the plasma membrane, making the protein-protein interactions necessary to create spherical particles.


Usage

For ALiVE, two vesicles were tested. One kind of vesicle is based on the Gag-p24 capsid protein of HIV. We used this protein fused together with RNA binding proteins to build and load virus-like vesicles for non-invasive cell monitoring.


Biologie

Gag-p24 is the group-specific antigen from the lentivirus HIV. It assembles at the plasma membrane and leads to the budding of vesicles.[1]
