Abstract:
ABSTRACT Rabies virus (RV) vaccine strain-based vectors show significant promise as potential live-attenuated vaccines against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Here we describe a new RV construct that will also likely have applications as a live-attenuated or killed-particle immunogen. We have created a RV containing a chimeric HIV-1 Env protein, which contains introduced cysteine residues that give rise to an intermolecular disulfide bridge between gp120 and the ectodomain of gp41. This covalently linked gp140 (gp140 SOS) is fused in frame to the cytoplasmic domain of RV G glycopr

ABSTRACT The biologically active form of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope (Env) glycoprotein is oligomeric. We previously described a soluble HIV-1 IIIB Env protein, gp140, with a stable oligomeric structure composed of uncleaved gp120 linked to the ectodomain of gp41 (P. L. Earl, C. C. Broder, D. Long, S. A. Lee, J. Peterson, S. Chakrabarti, R. W. Doms, and B. Moss, J. Virol. 68:3015–3026, 1994). Here we compared the antibody responses of rabbits to gp120 and gp140 that had been produced and purified in an identical manner. The gp140 antisera exhibited enhanced cross-r

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The envelope glycoprotein (Env) complex of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 has evolved a structure that is minimally immunogenic while retaining its natural function of receptor-mediated virus-cell fusion. The Env complex is trimeric; its six individual subunits (three gp120 and three gp41 subunits) are associated by relatively weak, noncovalent interactions. The induction of neutralizing antibodies after vaccination with individual Env subunits has proven very difficult, probably because they are inadequate mimics of the native complex. Our hypothesis is that a stable form of the

Abstract:
The extraordinary genetic diversity of the HIV-1 envelope spike [Env; trimeric (gp160)3, cleaved to (gp120/gp41)3] poses challenges for vaccine development. Envs of different clinical isolates exhibit different sensitivities to antibody-mediated neutralization. Envs of difficult-to-neutralize viruses are thought to be more stable and conformationally homogeneous trimers than those of easy-to-neutralize viruses, thereby providing more effective concealment of conserved, functionally critical sites. In this study we have characterized the antigenic properties of an Env derived from one of the mo

When the recombinant trimers based on theenvgenes of isolates 92UG037.8 and CZA97.012 were made according to the SOSIP.664 design and purified by affinity chromatography using broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) against quaternary epitopes (PGT145 and PGT151, respectively), the resulting trimers are highly stable and they are fully native-l

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Binding of the extracellular subunit of human immunodeficiency type 1 (HIV-1) envelope (Env) glycoprotein (gp120) to CD4 triggers the induction or exposure of a highly conserved coreceptor binding site in gp120 that helps mediate membrane fusion. Characterizing the structural features involved in gp120-coreceptor binding and the conditions under which binding occurs is important for understanding the fusion process, the evolution of pathogenic strains in vivo, the identification of novel anti-HIV compounds, and the development of HIV vaccines that utilize triggered structures of Env.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The persistence of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in the presence of robust host immunity has been associated in part with variation in viral envelope proteins leading to antigenic variation and escape from neutralizing antibodies. Previous studies of natural neutralization escape mutants have predominantly focused on gp120 and gp41 ectodomain sequence variations that alter antibody binding via changes in conformation or glycosylation pattern of the Env, likely due to the immune pressure exerted on the exposed ectodomain component of the glycoprotein.

Abstract TThe potential importance of binding antibodies (Abs) in preventing HIV-1 acquisition was recently demonstrated by the case control analysis of the RV144 phase III HIV-1 vaccine trial, which showed that binding Abs to a gp70 scaffolded V1V2 loop of gp120 correlated inversely with infection. We examined if immunization with a HIV-1 env trimer in the absence of any priming vector could induce functional V2-specific Abs. The clade B HIV-1 gp145 env protein consisting of gp120, gp41 ectodomain, and MPER, trimerized with foldon was expressed in 293F cells and purified. The protein adjuvant

Abstract:
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) pandemic is amongst the most important current worldwide public health threats. While much research has been focused on AIDS vaccines that target the surface viral envelope (Env) protein, including gp120 and the gp41 ectodomain, the C-terminal tail (CTT) of gp41 has received relatively little attention. Despite early studies highlighting the immunogenicity of a particular CTT sequence, the CTT has been classically portrayed as a type I membrane protein limited to functioning in Env trafficking and virion incor

Roughly one third of the HIV-1 genome is devoted to the HIV-1 envelope (Env) glycoprotein spike, which comprises three gp120 and three gp41 subunits. Structural characterization of the HIV-1 Env by electron microscopy, NMR, and X-ray crystallography reveals considerable conformational alterations, not only between trimeric ground state, CD4 receptor-bound conformation, and postfusion conformation of the spike, but also between monomeric and trimeric configurations of the subunits as well as between free- and antibody–bound states.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) is the aetiologic agent of AIDS. Presently there are ~38 million HIV-1 infected individuals worldwide and ~1 million deaths in 2019. Since its discovery, the quest for vaccine candidate for HIV-1 is alive, yet no effective vaccine exists till date. HIV-1 viral displayed Envelope (Env) protein is the primary viral target of the humoral immune system and is thus an obvious vaccine candidate. The historic RV144 HIV-1 clinical trial resulted in a modest efficacy of the gp120 clade B/E vaccine candidate and renewed hope in finding a HIV-1 vaccine. However, monom
