Description: HIVgp120 (318-327) is a short sequence (rgpgrafvti) from the envelope peptide of the HIV-1 IIIB strain, corresponding to the conserved C-terminal region of the glycoprotein. It is part of the HIV vaccine V3 peptide epitope, also known as the I10 peptide. However, HIVgp120 (318-327) lacks the A2 anchor residues needed for epitope-specific CTL recognition but possesses structural features that allow mixed A2 binding.
