Abstract

In this study, enzyme immunoassays for detection of type-specific antibodies to human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV) were developed by using short peptides corresponding to sequences located within the immunodominant domain of the transmembrane glycoproteins of both HIV-1 and HIV-2-simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). The assays were highly sensitive with currently available sera from various geographical areas. Furthermore, they appeared to be more specific in HIV serotyping than the Western blot (immunoblot) assay, since all of the sera were clearly discriminated as one or the other type. It was also shown that in contrast to HIV-1, the C-terminal cysteine residue (amino acid 620, SIV from captive macaques, Mm142 strain) of the HIV-2-SIV peptide is not necessary for recognition of the peptide by antibody to HIV-2.
