| gene products, env | Retroviral proteins, often glycosylated, coded by the envelope (env) gene. They are usually synthesised as protein precursors (polyproteins) and later cleaved into the final products by a viral protease. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| genes, env | DNA sequences that form the coding region for the viral envelope (env) proteins in retroviruses. The env genes contain a cis-acting RNA target sequence for the rev protein (= gene products, rev), termed the rev-responsive element (rre). (12 Dec 1998) |
| env | <molecular biology> Retroviral gene encoding viral envelope glycoproteins. (18 Nov 1997) |
| env gene | <molecular biology> One of three retrovirus genes which codes for the env glycoproteins. (09 Oct 1997) |
| env glycoprotein | <molecular biology> An important protein component of the mature retrovirus protein outer coat (the capsid). It is coded for by the env genes. (09 Oct 1997) |
