hierarchical_section_title: P24 capsid protein
caption_attribution_description: English: The HIV capsid consists of roughly 200 copies of the p24 protein. The p24 structure is shown in two representations: cartoon (top) and isosurface (bottom) and based on PDB 4XFX. The capsid structure is based on PDB 3J3Q
context_page_description: p24 is a component of the HIV particle capsid. There are approximately 2000 molecules per virus particle, or at a molecule weight of 24 kDa, about 10⁴ virus particles per picogram of p24. The onset of symptoms of AIDS correlates with a reduction in the number of CD4+ T-cells and increased levels of virus and p24 in the blood. It is a component of the gag polyprotein.
