Attachment of an oligopeptide epitope to the C-terminus of recombinant SIV gp160 facilitates the construction of SMAA complexes while preserving CD4 binding.

A small 14 amino acid oligopeptide tag (termed SV5-Pk) was fused onto the carboxy-terminus of simian immunodeficiency virus gp160 expressed from a recombinant baculovirus. The presence of the Pk tag had no obvious effect on the expression and glycosylation of gp160 and did not interfere either with...
