The HIV envelope gene encodes the major virion surface envelope glycoprotein gp160, which then is processed to form a transmembrane segment (gp41) and a glycosylated external segment (gp120); the vpr (r) gene, whose function is presently unknown. 1, record 1, English, - envelope%20gene

Les gènes du V.I.H.-1 comportent les trois gènes structuraux fondamentaux des rétrovirus, présents à la fois dans les cellules infectées et dans les particules virales matures. Le gène gag (ce qui signifie gène de l'antigène de groupe) qui code pour les protéines de nucléotide; le gène pol (pour polymérase) qui détermine la synthèse de l'enzyme caractéristique des rétrovirus, la transcriptase inverse (ou reverse transcriptase); à son extrémité existe un petit gène qui code pour une protéase dont le rôle est de cliver les protéines produites par le gène gag; le gène env (pour enveloppe) qui permet la synthèse des glycoprotéines de l'enveloppe virale. 2, record 1, French, - g%C3%A8ne%20enveloppe

La glycosylation d'une protéine de 90 kDa (produit par le gène env du VIH), aboutit à un précurseur de 160 kDa intracellulaire dont le clivage par une protéase cellulaire donne naissance à : une glycoprotéine de 110/120 kDa, d'où le sigle gp110/120, N-terminale la plus externe (EGP), correspondant aux spicules d'attachement; une seconde de PM [poids moléculaire] plus faible (41 kDA ou gp41), C-terminale, qui est transmembranaire et dotée d'une région hydrophobe qui assure son ancrage à la membrane cellulaire phospholipidique. 3, record 2, French, - glycoprot%C3%A9ine%20160
