Amino acid sequences inducing neutralizing antibodies to HIV-1 were sought. Murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were characterized by their reactivity with the envelope precursor gp160 or the Escherichia coli recombinant DNA products pB1 and pE3 representing the carboxy- and amino-terminal halves of mature envelope gp120. Fine mapping of the MAb determinants was performed using defined 15-mer synthetic peptides spanning the entire envelope gp120 region of HIV-1. One group of MAbs recognizes epitopes (amino acids 304-323) occurring in a small region with variable and conserved amino acid sequences of gp120. These MAbs mediate neutralization of the HIV-1 strain HTLV-IIIB (HIV-1IIIB) which was used for immunization. Nine out of 11 primary HIV-1 isolates were neutralized well or moderately well. In addition, prominent serological reactivity was noted with peptide sequences of strains of various European or American origins, but not with two HIV-1 strains of African origin. The cross-reactivity contrasts with previously described type-specific reactions to other sequences of this region. The reactivity to the short conserved site GPGR with its flanking amino acids may explain the broad sequence cross-reactivity seen with our neutralizing MAbs. Two other MAbs recognize conserved epitopes (amino acids 79-103) situated in the amino-terminal region of gp120. These MAbs did not neutralize HIV-1IIIB.

D007114 Immunization Deliberate stimulation of the host's immune response. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of ANTIGENS or IMMUNOLOGIC ADJUVANTS. PASSIVE IMMUNIZATION involves administration of IMMUNE SERA or LYMPHOCYTES or their extracts (e.g., transfer factor, immune RNA) or transplantation of immunocompetent cell producing tissue (thymus or bone marrow).

D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories.

D009500 Neutralization Tests The measurement of infection-blocking titer of ANTISERA by testing a series of dilutions for a given virus-antiserum interaction end-point, which is generally the dilution at which tissue cultures inoculated with the serum-virus mixtures demonstrate cytopathology (CPE) or the dilution at which 50% of test animals injected with serum-virus mixtures show infectivity (ID50) or die (LD50). Neutralization Test,Test, Neutralization,Tests, Neutralization
D010449 Peptide Mapping Analysis of PEPTIDES that are generated from the digestion or fragmentation of a protein or mixture of PROTEINS, by ELECTROPHORESIS; CHROMATOGRAPHY; or MASS SPECTROMETRY. The resulting peptide fingerprints are analyzed for a variety of purposes including the identification of the proteins in a sample, GENETIC POLYMORPHISMS, patterns of gene expression, and patterns diagnostic for diseases.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
