  • Title: Recombinant proteins derived from immunodominant regions of the gag and env genes of HIV-1 and their potential for use in serologic diagnosis.
    Author: Kovác J.
    Journal: Acta Virol; 1991 Aug; 35(4):383-90. PubMed ID: 1686963.
    Abstract:
    Based on the published sequences of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) isolates highly conserved regions of the gag and env genes containing immunodominant epitopes were selected and expressed in E. coli. The expression vectors pKK24 and pEX41 produced viral proteins recognized by sera obtained from HIV-1 seropositive individuals. A testing system was designed to determine the practical value of bacterially synthesized proteins of HIV-1 gag and env genes for serodiagnosis of HIV-1 infection.
