  ABSTRACT  
 
The third variable region (V3) of the HIV-1 gp120 envelope glycoprotein is immunodominant and contains features essential for coreceptor binding. We determined the structure of V3 in the context of an HIV-1 gp120 core complexed to the CD4 receptor and to the X5 antibody at 3.5 angstrom resolution. Binding of gp120 to cell-surface CD4 would position V3 so that its coreceptor-binding tip protrudes 30 angstroms from the core toward the target cell membrane. The extended nature and antibody accessibility of V3 explain its immunodominance. Together, the results provide a structural rationale for the role of V3 in HIV entry and neutralization.

Figure 1.
Fig. 1. Structure of an HIV-1 gp120 core with V3. The crystal structure of core gp120 (gray) with an intact V3 (red) is shown bound to the membrane-distal two domains of the CD4 receptor (yellow) and the Fab portion of the X5 antibody (dark and light blue). In this orientation, the viral membrane would be positioned toward the top of the page and the target cell toward the bottom.
Figure 3.
Fig. 3. Modeled trimer and coreceptor schematic. (A) V3 in the context of a trimer at the target cell surface. The structure of the CD4-triggered gp120 with V3 was superimposed onto the structure of four-domain CD4 (39) and the trimer model obtained by quantification of surface parameters (32). In this orientation, the target cell membrane and coreceptor are expected to be positioned toward the bottom of the page. (B) Schematic of coreceptor interaction. CCR5 (green) is shown with its tyrosine-sulfated N terminus (at residues 3, 10, 14, and 15) and three extracellular loops (ECLs). V3 (red) is shown with its conserved base interacting with the sulfated CCR5 N terminus and its flexible legs allowing its conserved V3 tip to reach the second ECL of CCR5.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB codes are shown on the right.
