    摘要: This invention features polypeptides, variants thereof, and fragments thereof useful in eliciting an immune response (e.g., neutralizing antibodies) against abroad spectrum of HIV-I isolates. The polypeptides, variants, and fragments include a portion of the gp120 V2 domain of HIV-I. The polypeptides, variants, and fragments display an epitope that is recognized by at least one antibody which neutralizes at least one HIV-I primary isolate. This invention also features nucleic acid sequences encoding those polypeptides. In addition, the invention provides methods of screening for inhibitors of HIV-I entry into cells, as well as methods of treatment using the inhibitors.
