The crystal structure of the gp41 ectodomain [29] and of the ectodomain partnered with an inhibitory peptide (C34) [89] revealed that the fusion active conformation of gp41 was a six-helix bundle in which three N-helices form an interior, trimeric coiled-coil onto which three antiparallel C-helices pack.
