Characterisation of llama antibody fragments able to act as HIV-1 entry inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) entry into cells is mediated by the functional envelope spike, which consists of trimers of gp120 bound to gp41.

Estimating the threshold surface density of Gp120-CCR5 complexes necessary for HIV-1 envelope-mediated cell-cell fusion. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Reduced expression of CCR5 on target CD4(+) cells lowers their susceptibility to infection by R5-tropic HIV-1, potentially preventing transmission of infection and delaying disease progression.

Analysis of Carbohydrates and Glycoconjugates by Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry: An Update for 2023–2024

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of MALDI mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well‐established technique and this comprehensive review is the twelfth update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2024.

Contribution of endosomal proteins EHD1 and EHD4 to the HIV‐1 replication cycle

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
EHD1 and EHD4, two key trafficking proteins, regulate multiple stages of HIV‐1 infection: In producer cells, they help produce fully infectious virus particles, regulate Envelope protein incorporation in a cell‐type‐dependent manner, and limit the accumulation of antiviral IFITM proteins in virions.

Role of the transcription factor E2F1 in CXCR4-mediated neurotoxicity and HIV neuropathology

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2007
This study sought to determine the role of the transcription factor E2F1 in CXCR4-mediated neurotoxicity and HIV neuropathology. We studied the effect of the HIV envelope protein gp120 on the expression of E2F1-dependent apoptotic proteins in human and ...

Canonical Antibodies Adopt Distinct Binding Modes to Recognize Viral Glycan Shields

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 61, 3 November 2026.
Canonical Y‐shaped antibodies recognize viral glycan shields through adaptive Fab assembly states shaped by glycan organization and somatic hypermutation. Structural analyses ofbroadly neutralizing antibodies VRC35 and VRC36 across glycoproteins of HIV‐1, influenza, SARS‐CoV‐2, and Lassa viruses reveal distinct Fab assembly states, spanning monovalent,

Structural insights into tyrosine sulfation of CCR5 by human tyrosylprotein sulfotransferase‐1

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 21, Page 6552-6568, November 2026.
Post‐translational sulfation of the chemokine receptor CCR5 is involved in crucial biological processes such as viral infection and chemokine signaling. This sulfation is catalyzed by human tyrosylprotein sulfotransferases (hTPSTs) within the Golgi lumen. However, the detailed molecular mechanism remains unresolved.

Harnessing Extracellular Vesicles for Precision Diagnostics and Infectious Disease Management: Integrating Host‐ and Pathogen‐Derived Cues

open access: yesExploration, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
This review summarizes the diagnostic and monitoring potential of host‐pathogen extracellular vesicles (hpEVs) in infectious diseases, advances in their isolation and analysis, and challenges to clinical translation. ABSTRACT Conventional infectious disease diagnostics often rely on detecting pathogen‐derived factors or an immune response directed ...

HIV-1 gp120 protein downregulates Nef induced IL-6 release in immature dentritic cells through interplay of DC-SIGN.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
HIV-1 replication is a tightly controlled mechanism which demands the interplay of host as well as viral factors. Both gp120 (envelope glycoprotein) and Nef (regulatory protein) have been correlated with the development of AIDS disease in independent ...

HIV‐1 Envelope Protein gp120 Is Present at High Concentrations in Secondary Lymphoid Organs of Individuals with Chronic HIV‐1 Infection [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2009
The envelope protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)--glycoprotein 120 (gp120)--has been demonstrated to dysregulate T cell function in vitro. We obtained autopsy tissues from individuals with chronic HIV-1 infection to determine whether there was enough gp120 in lymphoid tissues and/or blood to elicit these effects.
