Abstract

The treatment of HIV-1 virions with ionic and nonionic detergents (NP 40, octylglucoside, Na deoxycholate) resulted in an effect unusual for enveloped viruses: instead of solubilization of glycoproteins, the core protein p24 was solubilized while envelope glycoproteins with other structural proteins were found in subviral particles. These data are consistent with a model of HIV structural organization in which glycoproteins are included in the matrix formed by the protein p 17 and suggest that p24 is neither involved in the matrix nor closely bound to any viral proteins.
