"Identification of Determinants of Interaction Between CXCR4 and gp120 of a Dual-Tropic HIV-1(DH12) Isolate."

In this study, chimeric CXCR4-CXCR2 chemokine receptors were employed to identify the determinants involved in the interaction between CXCR4 and the dual-tropic HIV-1(DH12) gp120. Our results indicate that (i) HIV-1(DH12) gp120 interacts primarily with the...
