Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment Proposed Changes edit

Hello, I am a student assigned to edit this article. Here are my proposed changes:

1. Overall - The section will be expanded to be at least as comprehensive as the gp120 Wikipedia page. 2. Chemistry - The current wikipedia page talks about a "cascade of conformational changes" but does not go into detail about them, so the "Function" section can be expanded to include those details using the equine analogous protein gp45. Additionally, the fusion and activation processes can also be expanded upon. The structure of gp41 can also be described in detail using the following article: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4594655/ and https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4909398/. 3. As a drug target - There are a number of potential inhibitory pathways that can be included in this section.

If anyone reading this has any advice or concerns, please let me know. Neildsilva (talk) 19:26, 21 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
