Conformational plasticity underlies membrane fusion induced by an HIV sequence juxtaposed to the lipid envelope

Abstract Envelope glycoproteins from genetically-divergent virus families comprise fusion peptides (FPs) that have been posited to insert and perturb the membranes of target cells upon activation of the virus-cell fusion reaction. Conserved sequences rich in aromatic residues juxtaposed to the exter...
