Previous studies have shown that sera from HIV-1-infected individuals contain antibodies able to mediate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). These antibodies preferentially recognize envelope glycoprotein (Env) epitopes induced upon CD4 binding. Here, we show that a highly conserved tryptophan at position 69 of the gp120 inner domain is important for ADCC mediated by anti-cluster A antibodies and sera from HIV-1-infected individuals.
先前的研究表明,来自HIV-1感染者的血清含有能够介导抗体依赖性细胞毒性(ADCC)的抗体。这些抗体优先识别CD4结合后诱导产生的包膜糖蛋白(Env)表位。在此,我们表明,gp120内部结构域第69位的一个高度保守的色氨酸对于由抗A簇抗体和来自HIV-1感染者的血清介导的ADCC很重要。
