anti-BOB antibody
G protein-coupled receptor GPR15 is an Orphan-A GPCR with an unknown ligand. Coreceptor usage of primary human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) isolates varies according to
biological phenotype. The chemokine receptors CCR5 and CXCR4 are the major coreceptors that, together with CD4, govern HIV-1 entry into cells.
