    Abstract: The antiviral characteristics of monoclonal antibody IAM-41-2F5 (2F5) were determined in cell culture. The antibody had been previously shown to bind a specific sequence, ELDKWA, within the external domain of the gp41 envelope glycoprotein human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). Selection by 2F5 of recombinant phage from an epitope library confirmed the identification of the antibody's binding determinant. The antibody was found to be capable of neutralizing a broad range of lymphoid cell culture-adapted HIV-1 variants as well as HIV-1 primary isolates. Sequence analysis of the latter showed that neutralization was related to the presence of the antibody binding site. From kinetic measurements using an epitope-containing peptide or gp41, the half-time of dissociation for 2F5 was determined to be 122 min for the peptide and 156 min for gp41. The region of gp41 expressing this sequence exhibits greater conservation among HIV-1 isolates than do the variable domains of gp120.

    Abstract: The previous demonstration of the efficacy and tolerability of the Oka strain of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in clinical trials involving vaccination of both normal and immunocompromised individuals has laid the foundation for its use in preventing chickenpox. In this context, VZV could be useful as a vector for vaccinating against other infectious agents as well. As an initial application, a live recombinant VZV expressing Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) membrane glycoproteins (gp350/220) was generated by inserting a gene fusion of the VZV gpI promoter and hydrophobic leader-encoding sequence with the gp350/220 coding sequence into the thymidine kinase (TK) gene of VZV (Oka). Insertion of the foreign DNA into the thymidine kinase gene was demonstrated by Southern blot analysis and the ability of the recombinant virus to replicate in the presence of bromodeoxyuridine. RNA splicing, glycosylation, and plasma membrane presentation of gp350/220 in cells infected with the recombinant virus were similar to those seen in EBV-infected cells. In addition, the expression of VZV-specific glycoproteins was unaltered by the concomitant expression of this large foreign glycoprotein. Thus, VZV can be used as a live viral vector for active immunization against EBV and other pathogens.

    Abstract: 9-[( 2-Hydroxy-1-(hydroxymethyl)ethoxy]-methyl)guanine (BW B759U) is a more potent inhibitor of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in vitro than is the related nucleoside analog acyclovir (ACV). BW B759U was selectively activated to the 5'-triphosphate (BW B759U-triphosphate) in cells infected with HCMV to levels at least 10-fold higher than those measured for ACV-triphosphate and up to as much as 100-fold higher than the levels found in uninfected cells. BW B759U-triphosphate accumulated in HCMV-infected cells with time; the rate of this increase was dependent upon the drug dose and virus multiplicity of infection. Enzyme activities that catalyzed the phosphorylation of thymidine and 2'-deoxycytidine increased 3- to 7-fold in extracts of cells early after HCMV infection but thereafter declined. No concomitant increase in the rate of BW B759U phosphorylation was detected under these assay conditions. Maximal rate of accumulation of both BW B759U-triphosphate and ACV-triphosphate after a short exposure to drug occurred in the late phase of the infective cycle, as the titer of extracellular virus reached a peak in untreated cultures, but after the decline of stimulated host deoxypyrimidine kinase activities. Once formed, the BW B759U-triphosphate pool decreased very slowly and thus it persisted for several days in both HCMV-infected and uninfected cells.
