  • CD4, bound by gp120

(V1 & V2 loops)

  • CCR5 & CXCR4, bound

by gp120’s V3 loop

  • Tropism is largely defined

by V3 loop of gp120

  • Known predictors of co-

receptor tropism:

  • 11/25 rule (positive charge

at positions 11 & 25 of V3): 62% sensitivity at 5% FPR

  • Sequence-based SVM: 71%
  • Incorporating structure into

SVM: up to 80%

  • Physico-chemical basis:

unknown

Can we predict tropism?

CCR5 & CXCR4

  • G-protein coupled receptors (7 TM bundles, transfer

extracellular signals into the cell)

  • Structure of CXCR4 solved in 2012
  • Structure of CCR5 modelled on that template

Data

  • Experimentally verified sequences (Bozek et al.,

Retrovirology 2012): 7 R5 & 13 X4

  • Prototypical sequences from geno2pheno-C[NGS-Sanger]

(Pfeifer et al., Bioinformatics 2012): 47 R5 & 49 X4

  • Prototypical sequences from geno2pheno-C[NGS-Sanger]

and geno2pheno[coreceptor]: 31 R5 & 27 X4

  • V3 loop structure from PDB entry 2b4c
  • CXCR4 structure from PDB entry 2oe0
  • CCR5 structure model (33% identity, 55% positives to

CXCR4)

What else can we measure?

  • Charge (recall 11/25 rule)
  • Statistical preferences in peptide binding (PepSite,

Trabuco et al., Nucl Acids Res 2012)

  • Docking energy of receptor-loop complex

(FlexPepDock, London et al., Nucl Acids Res 2011)

  • There is a glycosylation site in pos 301 in 47/47 R5 and 46/49 X4

sequences, but it is not necessarily occupied
