  • Patent number: 7005503
    Abstract: Compositions are provided that comprise antibody against coreceptors for human immunodeficiency virus such as CCR5 and CXCR4. In particular, monoclonal human antibodies against human CCR5 are provided that bind to CCR5 with high affinity and are capable of inhibiting HIV infection at low concentrations. The antibodies can be used as prophylactics or therapeutics to prevent and treat HIV infection, for screening drugs, and for diagnosing diseases or conditions associated with interactions with HIV coreceptors.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 8, 2002
    Date of Patent: February 28, 2006
    Assignee: Genetastix Corporation
    Inventors: Shaobing Hua, Michelle H. Pauling, Li Zhu
  • Publication number: 20030165988
    Abstract: Methods are provided for efficient, high throughput screening of antibody libraries against proteins targets, especially membrane proteins. In particular, methods are provided for screening a fully human antibody library against membrane proteins such as HIV coreceptors in yeast. More particularly, a library of human single chain antibodies is screened against peptide fragments derived from extracellular domains of human CCR5 and high affinity monoclonal antibodies against CCR5 are selected.
