Fully hydrophobic HIV gp41 adopts a hemifusion-like conformation in phospholipid bilayers

The HIV envelope glycoprotein mediates virus entry into target cells by fusing the virus lipid envelope with the cell membrane. This process requires large-scale conformational changes of the fusion protein gp41. Current understanding of the mechanisms with which gp41 induces membrane merger is limi...
