  • Publication number: 20030039954
    Abstract: Described is a new variety of retrovirus designated HIV-3, also known as HIV-1 subtype O, samples of which are deposited in the European Collection of Animal Cell Cultures (ECACC) under V88060301. Further described is a process to detect the HIV-3 retrovirus in biological liquids or tissue. One such process involves contacting a biological sample suspected of containing HIV-3 nucleic acids with a DNA probe corresponding to a segment of genomic HIV-3 retrovirus RNA, such as the LTR region, and detecting the hybridization products thereof.

  • Patent number: 6265200
    Abstract: Described is a new variety of retrovirus designated HIV-3, also known as HIV-1 subtype O, samples of which are deposited in the European Collection of Animal Cell Cultures (ECACC) under V88060301. Further described are variants of the virus.

  • Patent number: 6013484
    Abstract: Described is a new variety of retrovirus designated HIV-3, samples of which are deposited in the European Collection of Animal Cell Cultures (ECACC) under V88060301. Further described are antigens obtained from the virus, particularly proteins p12, p16, p25 and glycoproteins gp41 and gp120 to be used in the diagnosis of ARC or AIDS caused by HIV-3. Immunogenic compositions to be used as vaccines contain an envelope glycoprotein of HIV-3 such as gp41 or gp120.

  • Patent number: 5858647
    Abstract: Described is a new variety of retrovirus designated HIV-3, samples of which are deposited in the European Collection of Animal Cell Cultures (ECACC) under V88060301. Further described are antigens obtained from the virus, particularly proteins p12, p16, p25 and glycoproteins gp41 and gp120 to be used in the diagnosis of ARC or AIDS caused by HIV-3. The methods to detect antibodies against HIV-3 retrovirus in a biological fluid involve contacting the suspect body fluid with a composition containing one or more of the proteins or glycoproteins of HIV-3 or with a lysate of the virus, or with an antigen possessing epitopes common to HIV-3, and detecting the immunological conjugate formed between the anti-HIV-3 antibodies and the antigen(s) used.
