Summary:Various embodiments of the invention relate to polypeptides comprising 1-10 or more epitopes of the HIV envelope protein and a fusion protein, wherein the polypeptide lacks the transmembrane domain of the HIV gp41 protein. Such polypeptides may be expressed in mammalian cells, such as human cells, to produce, for example, polypeptides that are useful in developing novel anti-HIV antibodies. Polypeptides described herein and novel antibodies developed therefrom are generally useful for medical diagnostics, and they may also be useful in the prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of HIV.
