ABSTRACT:
Compositions which comprise one or more B epitopes of the envelope glycoprotein of a retrovirus and one or more T epitope of the envelope glycoprotein from a distinct retrovirus, or a Tepitope from a different protein of the same retrovirus as the B epitope. In particular, the retrovirus is a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or a simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV), human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I), or a human T-cell lymphotropic virus type II (HTLV-II).
