ABSTRACT:
Novel recombinant HTLV-III fusion proteins denoted R10, PB1, 590, KH1, and the HIV portion of each of these proteins are useful in the diagnosis, prophylaxis or therapy of AIDS. Protein R10 is a 95 kD fusion protein; protein PB1 is a 26 kD fusion protein; protein 590 is an 86 kD fusion protein; and protein KH1 is a 70 kD fusion protein. These proteins are considered to be especially useful to prepare vaccines for the HTLV-III virus.
