It is a surface protein expressed on the viral envelope and has a molecular mass of approximately 120 kDa. As part of the Env glycoprotein gp120 plays a critical role in virus entry into host cells by mediating attachment to the CD4 receptor on target cells primarily helper T cells.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe HIV-1 gp120 protein facilitates viral attachment and entry into host cells. It forms a part of the gp160 precursor which cleaves into two subunits: gp120 and gp41 and together they create the HIV envelope spike complex. Gp120 specifically interacts with the CD4 receptor and subsequently co-receptors such as CCR5 or CXCR4 triggering fusion of the viral and cellular membranes through the gp41 protein.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe HIV-1 gp120 protein initiates events critical to the human immunodeficiency virus infection process. It plays a role in the viral attachment and entry pathway which is necessary for HIV to penetrate host immune cells. Gp120's interaction with CD4 and co-receptors like CCR5 is essential for the establishment of infection integrating it into pathways involved in immune evasion and pathogenesis.\u003cbr\u003e\nHIV-1 gp120 is closely associated with the pathogenesis of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Its role in mediating viral attachment leads to the depletion of CD4-positive T cells a hallmark of AIDS progression. The interaction between gp120 and host proteins like CD4 and CCR5 not only helps in viral entry but also occasionally triggers immune responses or immune exhaustion intensifying disease severity in some individuals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843802419369,"sku":"ab167715","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab167715","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
