External envelope protein of the human immunodeficiency virus which is encoded by
the HIV env gene. It has a molecular weight of 120 kDa and contains numerous glycosylation
sites. Gp120 binds to cells expressing CD4 cell-surface antigens, most notably T4-lymphocytes
and monocytes/macrophages. Gp120 has been shown to interfere with the normal function
of CD4 and is at least partly responsible for the cytopathic effect of HIV
