The HIV Fusion Peptide and its Cross-Linked Oligomers: Efficient Syntheses, Significance of the Trimer in Fusion Activity, Correlation of β Strand Conformation with Membrane Cholesterol, and Proximity to Lipid Headgroups

For enveloped viruses such as HIV, a ~20-residue N-terminal fusion peptide domain in the envelope protein binds to target cell membranes and plays a key role in fusion between the viral and cellular membranes during infection. The chemically synthesized HIV fusion peptide or “HFP” catalyzes fusion b...
