Target Details

Target: HIV-1 p24 (Human Immunodeficiency Virus 1 Capsid (HIV-1 p24))

Alternative Name: HIV1 p24 (HIV-1 p24 Products)

Target Type: Viral Protein

Background: HIV-1 is composed of two copies of single-stranded RNA enclosed by a conical capsid comprising the viral protein p24, typical of lentiviruses. The RNA component is 9749 nucleotides long. This is in turn surrounded by a plasma membrane of host-cell origin. The single-strand RNA is tightly bound to the nucleocapsid proteins, p6, p7 and enzymes that are indispensable for the development of the virion, such as reverse transcriptase and integrase.
