The Cross-Clade Neutralizing Activity of a Human Monoclonal Antibody Is Determined by the GPGR V3 Motif of HIV Type 1
1 Nov 2004
Abstract excerpt
Both polyclonal and monoclonal human antibodies (Abs) to the V3 domain of HIV-1 gp120 display cross-clade neutralizing activity against primary isolates and T cell-adapted virus strains. The most broadly neutralizing of the human anti-V3 monoclonal Abs (mAbs), 447-52D, recognizes 14 amino acids, including the GPxR core epitope at the tip of the V3 loop. Monoclonal Ab 447-52D neutralized 92% of 38 primary isolates...
