This Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) gp120/Glycoprotein 120 ELISA Kit is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the quantitative measurement of HIV HIV gp120 protein in Recombinant protein. It contains recombinant HIV HIV gp120, and antibodies raised against the recombinant protein. This ELISA kit is complete and ready-to-use.
Background: The HIV-1 gp120 envelope protein, a glycoprotein that is part of the outer layer of the virus, is an essential component in the multi-tiered viral entry process. It presents itself as viral membrane spikes consisting of 3 molecules of gp120 linked together and anchored to the membrane by gp41 protein. Gp120 is essential for viral infection as it facilitates HIV entry into the host cell and this is its best-known and most researched role in HIV infection. However, it is becoming increasingly evident that gp120 might also be facilitating viral persistence and continuing HIV infection by influencing the T cell immune response to the virus. The surface protein gp120 attaches the virus to the host lymphoid cell by binding to the primary receptor CD4. Gp120 binding to its receptor CD4 and co-receptor, CXCR4 or CCR5 is required for fusion of viral and cellular membranes. Several mechanisms might be involved in this process of which gp120 binding to the CD4 receptor of T cells is the best known and most important interaction as it facilitates viral entry into the CD4+ cells and their depletion, a hallmark of the HIV infection. Gp120 is shed from the viral membrane and accumulates in lymphoid tissues in significant amounts. Despite the overall genetic heterogeneity of the gp120 glycoprotein, the conserved CD4 binding site provides an attractive antiviral target. Interaction between gp120 and ITGA4/ITGB7 would allow the virus to enter GALT early in the infection, infecting and killing most of GALT's resting CD4+ T-cells. This T-cell depletion is believed to be the major insult to the host immune system leading to AIDS.

Product Notes
The Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) HIV-1 (Catalog #AAA258425) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA258425 ELISA Kit recognizes Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) HIV-1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) gp120/Glycoprotein 120, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
