Abstract
A set of peptides (amino acid positions 10-23) corresponding to seven most widely spread variants of the gp120 V3 domain in the HIV-infected population of South Russia were prepared by the solid-phase synthesis . A laboratory variant of the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent ass ay (ELISA) was developed for the determination of V3 specific antibodi es with use of the peptides synthesized. The analysis of the V3-specif ic antibodies in HIV-infected using the elaborated test-system reveale d a correlation between the V3 variants distribution and the occurrenc e of antibodies against these variants.
