HIV relies on a variety of cellular proteins to proliferate and persist in infected individuals. In an infected cell, the oligomeric HIV-1 envelope protein (red) recruits different sets of cellular interactors during the extensive maturation from its synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum (green), through elaborate glycosylation in the Golgi (red; orange in combined) to its destination at the plasma membrane, the site of its incorporation on nascent virions.
