LAV44 and LAV15 (lymphadenopathy-associated virus) peptides of the CD4-binding region of gp 120 per se bind to the CD4 receptor (Reed and Kinzel, Biochemistry 30: 4521-4528, 1991; Lasky et al., Cell 50:975-985, 1987). Depending on the environment, the LAV peptides exhibit the ability to switch coope
The envelope glycoprotein (gpl20) of HIV-1 was labeled with fluorescein by using 6- [4,6-dichlorotriazinyl]aminofluorescein. The labeled glycoprotein was found to bind to CD4-positive CEM cells. Monoclonal antibody OKT4a but not OKT4 blocked this binding. Similar specific binding of fluorescein-labe
