Synthetische Antigene zur Bestimmung der AIDS-bezogenen, von LAV-2 verursachten Krankheiten

Peptide sequences are disclosed which immunologically mimic proteins encoded by the env and gag regions of LAV-2, a retrovirus associated with AIDS. The peptide can be used in various specific binding assays to detect the presence of antibodies to LAV-2 in individuals previously exposed to the virus...

Summary:Peptide sequences are disclosed which immunologically mimic proteins encoded by the env and gag regions of LAV-2, a retrovirus associated with AIDS. The peptide can be used in various specific binding assays to detect the presence of antibodies to LAV-2 in individuals previously exposed to the virus. The peptides enable one to distinguish the presence of antibodies to LAV-2 from antibodies to HIV-1.
