Functional narrative    

A peptide segment, PAP 248-286 appears to enhance HIV infection by forming amyloid fibers called SEVI, which enhance the attachment of the HIV. This segment is mostly disordered when bound to the surface of the micelle, as opposed to the helical structures typically bound to most amyloid proteins.

Region 1: 248-286

Comments:
The 248-286 region is ordered in the native crystal structure, but disordered in solution and also when bound to membrane mimetics (unusual for amyloid proteins). The degree of disorder in the final active amyloid product is currently unknown.
