Extent and specificity of HIV-1 binding to CD4-positive and negative HeLa cells. CD4-positive MAGI cells were exposed for 1 h at 4°C to NL4-3 carrying GFP-Vpr alone (first row) or in the presence of soluble CD4 (second row). CD4-negative HeLa cells were exposed to HIV-1/NL4-3 carrying GFP-Vpr (third row). Cells were stained with anti-β actin and a Texas Red-labeled secondary antibody and DAPI and images of red and green fluorescence were superimposed (third column).
