Antigenic Characteristics of Rhinovirus Chimeras Designed in silico for En5hanced Presentation of HIV-1 gp41 Epitopes
0022-2836/$ see front matter © 2010 E The development of an effective AIDS vaccine remains the most promising long-term strategy to combat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/AIDS. Here, we report favorable antigenic characteristics of vaccine candidates isolated from a combinatorial library of human rhinoviruses displaying the ELDKWA epitope of the gp41 glycoprotein of HIV-1. The design princip...

Introduction: Despite considerable efforts to control AIDS pandemic, it is still one of the significant infectious concerns worldwide. The advance in medical research has led to the development of highly active antiretroviral therapy with a considerable effect to suppress the disease. However, an effective vaccine capable of eradication the HIV pandemic is not available yet. Failure to develop ...
متن کاملHuman rhinovirus type 14:human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) V3 loop chimeras from a combinatorial library induce potent neutralizing antibody responses against HIV-1.
In an effort to develop a useful AIDS vaccine or vaccine component, we have generated a combinatorial library of chimeric viruses in which the sequence IGPGRAFYTTKN from the V3 loop of the MN strain of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is displayed in many conformations on the surface of human rhinovirus 14 (HRV14). The V3 loop sequence was inserted into a naturally immunogenic site o...
متن کاملIn silico vaccine design based on molecular simulations of rhinovirus chimeras presenting HIV-1 gp41 epitopes.
A cluster of promising epitopes for the development of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) vaccines is located in the membrane-proximal external region (MPER) of the gp41 subunit of the HIV envelope spike structure. The crystal structure of the peptide corresponding to the so-called ELDKWA epitope (HIV-1 HxB2 gp41 residues 662-668), in complex with the corresponding broadly neutralizing human mo...
متن کاملCloning, Expression and Purification of a Novel Multi-epitopic HIV-1 Vaccine Candidate: A Preliminary Study on Immunoreactivity
Introduction : Designing an effective vaccine against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 is a global health priority . Multi-epitope vaccines offer several potential advantages that may be promising in case of mutable divergent pathogens such as HIV-1. Herein, a multiepitopic recombinant protein containing various HIV-1 antigens was expressed in E. coli cells and its immunogenicity in combi...
