    摘要: Using a method to measure the effect of downregulation of certain cellular proteins on HIV integration, host proteins implicated in HIV infection were identified. The identified proteins and encoding nucleic acids provide targets for inhibiting HIV infection and for evaluating the ability of compounds to inhibit HIV infection. Compounds inhibiting HIV infection include compounds targeting identified proteins and compounds targeting nucleic acids encoding the proteins.

    摘要: Human scFvs are disclosed which interact with a conformational epitope along the pre-hairpin, N-helix coiled coil structure within the heptad repeat 1 (HR1) region of gp41 of HIV. These antibodies, as well as IgG conversions, are shown to neutralize diverse HIV isolates. Isolated nucleic acid molecules are also disclosed which encode relevant portions of these antibodies, as well as the purified forms of the expressed antibodies or relevant antibody fragments, such as VH and VL chains. The antibody compositions disclosed within this specification may provide for a therapeutic treatment against HIV infection by reducing viral load levels within an infected individual, thus prolonging the asymptomatic phase of HIV infection. These antibodies will also be useful in assays to identify HIV antiviral compounds as well as allowing for the identification of candidate HIV vaccines, such as HIV peptide vaccines.
