HIV-1 Gag p17 is the matrix protein of AIDS virus, HIV-1, and is produced by digestion of its precursor Gag p55 by HIV-1 protease. This protein is indispensable for reproduction of AIDS virus and is essential component of AIDS virus particles. This protein was over-expressed as a recombinant protein in E. coli with a plasmid carrying the Gag p17 coding region of HIV-1 virus, subtype B, and was highly purified by several steps of chromatography. Its molecular weight is 17 kD, same as that of p17 purified from AIDS virus particles.
