Activation of gp120 of human immunodeficiency virus by their V3 loop-derived peptides.

abstract：:The development of central nervous system (CNS) neuronal networks involves processes including neuroblast migration, axonal pathfinding, and synaptogenesis. To evaluate the role of the axonal guidance molecule DSCAM in CNS connectivity, we generated a lacZ reporter construct, Pr1.8-betagal, containing a 1.8kb fragment...
