Entry terms

  • HIV p16 protease
  • HIV Proteinase
  • HTLV III Protease
  • HTLV-III Protease
  • p16 pol gene product, HIV
  • p16 protease, HIV
  • Protease, HTLV-III

Scope note

  • Enzyme of the human immunodeficiency virus that is required for post-translational cleavage of gag and gag-pol precursor polyproteins into functional products needed for viral assembly. HIV protease is an aspartic protease encoded by the amino terminus of the pol gene.
