Protein Domain : Envelope glycoprotein Gp160

Primary Identifier  IPR037527 Type  Family
Short Name  Gp160
description  The envelope glycoprotein Gp160 of HIV1 and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) is cleaved into the surface protein Gp120 and the transmembrane protein Gp41 []. This entry represents the full length Gp160. Gp160 oligomerizes in the host endoplasmic reticulum into predominantly trimers. In a second time, Gp160 transits in the host Golgi, where glycosylation is completed. The precursor is then proteolytically cleaved in the trans-Golgi and thereby activated by cellular furin or furin-like proteases to produce Gp120 and Gp41 [].
