Vpr (HIV) 746 V T region
of lysis of red blood cells coated with anti-erythrocyte
antibodies under standard conditions.
Vpr (HIV)
A protein of the human immunodeficiency virus that
facilitates passage of HIV DNA to the nucleus. It promotes
G2 arrest and activation of the intrinsic apoptotic
pathway.
VpreB
Refer to pre-B cell receptor.
VpreB and λ5
Proteins produced at the early pro-B cell stage of B cell
development required for regulation of μ chain expression on
cell surfaces. VpreB and λ5 replace immunoglobulin light
chains in pre-B cells and play an important role in B cell
differentiation.
Vpu (HIV)
A protein of the human immunodeficiency virus that combines
with recently synthesized CD4 in the cytoplasm of
host cells and targets it for ubiquitin-mediated degradation
by proteasomes. It leads to formation of ion channels in the
membranes of host cells to permit virus release. It interferes
with the synthesis of MHC class I and increases susceptibility
to the Fas-mediated apoptotic pathway.
V region
Refer to variable region.
V region subgroups
Individual chain V region subdivisions based on significant
homology in amino acid sequence.
V T region
T lymphocyte antigen receptor variable region.
