MONOKLONALE ANTIKOERPER UND PEPTIDE, WELCHE ZUR BEHANDLUNG UND DIAGNOSE VON HIV-INFEKTIONEN BRAUCHBAR SIND

摘要

Disclosed are monoclonal antibodies reactive with one or more neutralizing regions of HIV proteins, peptides or homologs of such neutralizing regions, and nucleic acid segments coding for said peptides. Neutralizing regions include portions of the env and gag genes from various HIV isolates. The monocional antibodies may be used to treat HIV infection or in diagnosis and the peptides may be used to elicit antibodies and to block HIV infection.
