Figure 6

Incorporation of WT and mutant E proteins into HIV-1-like particles. 293T cells were cotransfected with pNL4-3R-E-Luc and pcDNA3 (marked as the control) or with each of the WT and mutant E1E2 plasmids. Virions were isolated by sedimenting culture supernatants through a cushion containing 20% sucrose. Equal volumes of cell and virion lysates were analyzed by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions followed by Western blotting using MAbs specific for E2, E1, and HIV-1 capsid p24, respectively.
