Figure 7. CD4 binding characteristics of early-transmitting gp120s.
A) Schematic of the Surface Plasmon resonance analysis strategy used to measure the reactivity of monomeric sCD4 (D1D2) and dodecameric sCD4 (D1D2-Igαtp). B–E) Sensorgrams depicting the binding kinetics of increasing concentrations of D1D2 or D1D2-Igαtp reacting with immobilized gp120s, the identities of which are noted in each panel. Each ligand/analyte pair is listed and overall affinity is reported as KD (where applicable). These results are representative of three independent experiments using independently coupled gp120 biosensor surfaces.
