ABSTRACT:
A method for neutralizing the retrovirus Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 (HIV-1) through free virus neutralization or fusion inhibition, comprises adding to a cell mixture of HIV-infected and uninfected cells, a neutralizing agent which specifically binds to at least a portion of the amino acid sequence R-Leu-Ile-Cys-R', where R is either absent or a sequence of 1 to 5 amino acids selected from the group consisting of Lys, Gly-Lys, Ser-Gly-Lys, Cys-Ser-Gly-Lys and Gly-Cys-Ser-Gly-Lys, and R' is either absent or a sequence of 1 to 2 amino acids selected from the group consisting of Thr and Thr-Thr, under conditions effective for allowing said neutralizing agent to inhibit fusion between said HIV-1 infected cells or free HIV-1 and said uninfected cells or administering the neutralizing agent orally, intravenously, or intramuscularly under conditions effective for allowing said neutralizing agent to inhibit fusion between HIV-1 infected cells and uninfected cells. In one embodiment, the neutralizing agent is a novel human monoclonal antibody.
