Several hybridoma cell lines were raised against the highly cytopathic Zaïrian isolate of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), HIV1-NDK. The specificity of the secreted monoclonal antibodies (mAb) was demonstrated by immunoblotting, radioimmunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence. Two hybridoma cell

✦ Synopsis
Two mouse hybridoma cell lines secreting antibodies to the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) p25 major core protein and its precursors p55 and p41, were developed after immunization with the highly cytopathic Zaïrian HIV-1 isolate, NDK. These monoclonal antibodies also react with the gag gene products from HIV-1-BRU prototype and present cross reaction with HIV-2-ROD, and SIV-AGM. They map into topographically distinct areas of p25 and define epitopic regions topographically separated from those recognized by four other anti-p25 mAb suggesting the existence of at least 6 spatially distinct epitopic regions on HIV-1-p25 core protein.
