The structure of the HIV-1 Vpu ion channel: modelling and simulation studies.
Vpu is an 81 amino acid auxiliary protein in HIV-1 which exhibits channel activity. We used two homo-pentameric bundles with the helical transmembrane segments derived from FTIR spectroscopy in combination with a global molecular dynamics search protocol: (i) tryptophans (W) pointing into the pore,...
