ABSTRACT:
It has now been found that relatively short peptides such as the tripeptide glycyl-prolyl-glycine are able to effectively inhibit HIV infection of cells and syncytia formation between HIV infected and and non-infected cells. The peptides are suitable for therapy of patients infected with HIV and in prevention of HIV infection.
