Patent Searching and Data


Title:
CD4-MIMETIC SMALL MOLECULES SENSITIZE HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS TO VACCINE-ELICITED ANTIBODIES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/120440
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Described herein are methods of generating a protein binding domain that specifically binds to gp120 in a specific conformational state, comprising contacting gp120 with a CD4-mimetic compound, thereby forming gp120 in the specific conformational state; and generating antibodies to gp120 in the specific conformation state. Relatedly, the disclosure also describes methods of neutralizing HIV- 1, comprising contacting HIV-1 with an effective amount of a CD4-mimetic compound, thereby forming HIV-1 having gp120 in a specific conformational state; and contacting the HIV-1 in the specific conformational state with an antibody.
