General guidance for this class

Reference standards in the Viral Peptides class are typically shipped as lyophilized powder and stored desiccated at −20 °C protected from light. Once reconstituted in bacteriostatic water or the assay-appropriate buffer, aliquot and store at −80 °C to minimize freeze–thaw cycles. Confirm handling requirements against your institutional biosafety and radiation protocols before use.

Mechanism & research applications

HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50) sits within the Viral Peptides research class (CPC reference HIV-018). Viral peptides map to functional regions of viral proteins — fusion peptides, receptor-binding domains, protease cleavage sites, and immunodominant epitopes — enabling targeted studies of entry, replication, and immune recognition. Investigators typically incorporate HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50) as a reference standard, tool ligand, or substrate in the assay contexts listed above. Pseudovirus entry, plaque-reduction, protease-activity, and ELISA readouts.

Studied for

  • Viral fusion and entry-inhibitor screening
  • Viral protease activity and inhibitor discovery
  • Antigenic-epitope mapping and vaccine research
  • Structure–activity relationship (SAR) on viral surface proteins

Frequently asked

What is HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50)?

HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50) (CPC catalog code HIV-018) is a synthetic viral / antiviral research peptide in the viral peptides category. It is provided as a lyophilized ~1 mg vial for in-vitro research use only.

What is HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50) studied for?

Published and internal research programs use HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50) as a reference standard in viral peptides workflows — for example, viral fusion and entry-inhibitor screening and viral protease activity and inhibitor discovery. Human clinical evidence is not established.

Is HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50) FDA-approved for human use?

No. HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50) is a research-grade reference peptide and is not approved by the FDA or any national regulator for human or veterinary therapeutic use. It is offered exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research and does not ship to the United States for consumer use.

How is HIV-1 rev Protein (34-50) typically used in the lab?
