ABSTRACT
Novel conformation-specific antibodies were raised against a cyclic chimeric dodecapeptidyl multiple antigen peptide (cCD-MAP) constructed with a spacer-armed Gly-Asp dipeptide and two pentapeptides (S(169)-Q(170)-K(171)-E(172)-G(173) of CCR5 and E(179)-A(180)-D(181)-D(182)-R(183) of CXCR4) which are components of the undecapeptidyl arch (UPA from R(168) to C(178) in CCR5, from N(176) to C(186) in CXCR4) of extracellular loop 2 (ECL2) in chemokine receptors (CCR5 and CXCR4). Of the antibodies raised, one monoclonal antibody, CPMAb-I (IgMkappa), reacted with cCD-MAP, but not with the linear chimeric dodecapeptide-MAP. The antibody reacted with the cells separately expressing CCR5 or CXCR4, but not with those not expressing the coreceptors. Moreover, the antibody markedly suppressed infection by X4, R5, or R5X4 virus in a dose-dependent manner in a new phenotypic assay for drug susceptibility of HIV-1 using CCR5-expressing Hela/CD4(+) cell clone 1-10 (MAGIC-5). Moreover, CPMAb-I interfered with LAV-1(BRU) infection (m.o.i. = 0.01) of Molt4#8 cells cocultured with CPMAb-I-producing hybridoma in the transwell, and significantly interfered with neither chemotaxis nor calcium influx induced with stromal cell-derived factor 1 alpha (SDF-1alpha). Thus, the antibody raised against the cCD-MAP provides powerful protection or defense against HIV-1 infection. We therefore propose the cCD-MAP or its derivative immunogen as a novel candidate for an HIV-1 coreceptor-based self-defense vaccine.
