The human and simian immunodeficiency viruses HIV-1, HIV-2 and SIV interact with similar epitopes on their cellular receptor, the CD4 molecule.
The cellular receptor for HIV-1 is the leucocyte differentiation antigen, CD4. Blocking of HIV-1 infectivity can be achieved with monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to some, but not all epitopes of this antigen. We demonstrate here, by inhibition of virus infection, blocking of syncytium formation and inh...
