By biochemical and mutational analysis, we showed that glycosylation is a key modulator of V1V2 conformation and binding to α4ß7 We investigate that gp120 monomer, and scaffolded gp16-V1V2 envelopes induce robust α4β7 blocking Abs which significantly blocked α4β7: HIV envelope protein interaction.Generated fully functional protein microarrays, with monolayer arrangements and complete control over their orientations, using recombinant proteins produced by introducing non-canonical amino ac-id by site-directed mutagenesis. Showed the potential of unnatural amino acids to enable non-natural functions when incorporated in the protein scaffold of heme metalloproteins.
