Five monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) to gag proteins of HIV-1 were prepared in mice. Western blot analyses showed that three clones recognized p24 and the other two p17. Among the three MoAbs recognizing p24, all recognized two of three strains of HIV-2. The spectra of reactions to SIV[AGM] of these MoAbs against p24 were different from one to another; K3-24 recognized all four strains of SIV[AGM], L6-24 three of them, and K5-24 none of them. Of the two MoAbs recognizing p17, K7-17 recognized two of the three strains of HIV-2 but not any SIV[AGM] strain, and the other clone, L14-17 recognized none of analogous proteins of HIV-2 nor of SIV[AGM]. These results demonstrate that the gag proteins of HIV-2 and SIV[AGM] share some common epitopes with those of HIV-1 which are heterogenic in some degree among the different isolates.

D003429 Cross Reactions Serological reactions in which an antiserum against one antigen reacts with a non-identical but closely related antigen. Cross Reaction,Reaction, Cross,Reactions, Cross
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.
