Antibodies binding to hiv gp120 for treating hiv infection
A patent application (Publication Number: US20240034774A1) has been filed for an antibody or antigen-binding fragment that binds to the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) Envelope glycoprotein gp120. The antibody comprises specific sequences in the heavy chain variable region (VH) and light chain variable region (VL), with defined glycosylation sites that are sialylated. The patent also covers a pharmaceutical composition containing the antibody and a host cell expressing the antibody, emphasizing the sialylation of N-linked glycosylation sites in the variable domains of the expressed antibodies.
Furthermore, the patent application includes a method of inhibiting HIV in a human subject by administering the antibody or antigen-binding fragment. The amino acid sequences of the heavy chain variable region (VH) and light chain variable region (VL) are specified, with an emphasis on sialylation at specific sites. The patent application highlights the potential therapeutic use of the antibody in combating HIV and the importance of glycosylation patterns in enhancing its efficacy.
