Abstract
Here, we show that Env derived from the parental CC1/85 strain is inherently capable of a low affinity
interaction with MVC-bound CCR5. However, this phenotype was only revealed in 293-Affinofile cells and NP2-CD4/
CCR5 cells that express very high levels of CCR5, and was masked in TZM-bl, JC53 and U87-CD4/CCR5 cells as well
as PBMC, which express comparatively lower levels of CCR5 and which are more commonly used to detect
resistance to CCR5 antagonists.
