    摘要: The invention provides a clinically useful monoclonal antibody which can recognize the conserved region of the V3-PND region of a glycoprotein antigen (gp120) having a molecular weight of about 120,000 Da and contained in the coat of a human immunodefiency virus (HIV) and which can neutralize a wide variety of HIV variants, or a fragment of the above antibody, and chimera and humanized antibodies derived from the above antibody. It is possible to prepare a monoclonal antibody having the activity of neutralizing various HIV variants by using as the immunogen several types of peptides having a PND tip region containing a GPGR sequence having a high conservability in the PND region of the gp120 of an HIV. It is possible to obtain a chimera antibody or an altered antibody having an anti-HIV neutralization activity effective for clinical application by transplanting a fragment of a gene coding for the variable region of the above monoclonal antibody or the complementarity-determining region of that region to a human antibody gene.
