PLA2G1B directly binds to gp41. (A, B) gp41 binds to coated PLA2G1B by ELISA. Binding to coated PLA2G1B of serial dilutions (0-1 µg/well) of gp41 (D117III strain on A and MN strain on B), or unrelated proteins (CTL1: EFF-1 on A and B or CTL2: IF38 on A). (C, D) PLA2G1B binds to coated gp41 by ELISA. Binding of serial dilutions (0-1 µg/well) of PLA2G1B to coated gp41 (D117III on C, or MN on D) was tested in triplicate by ELISA. Results are shown as the mean ± SD of the OD value of one representative experiment among two (A), five (B), one (C) and five (D). (E) gp41 binds to PLA2G1B in pull-down assays. Recombinant PLA2G1B protein was incubated with strep-tagged-gp41 (D117III strain, gp41+PLA2G1B) or not (PLA2G1B only). PLA2G1B-gp41 complexes were pulled-down with strep-tactin XT-beads that pull-down gp41. Pulled-down products and unbound proteins were revealed by immunoblotting with goat polyclonal anti-gp41 Ab or mouse anti-PLA2G1B mAb. One representative experiment of five experiments with similar results with D117III gp41 is presented. Similar results were obtained in three experiments with MN gp41 ( Supplementary Figure 2 ).
