Amino acid sequences inducing neutralizing antibodies to HIV-1 were sought. Murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were characterized by their reactivity with the envelope precursor gp160 or the Escherichia coli recombinant DNA products pB1 and pE3 representing the carboxy- and amino-terminal halves of mature envelope gp120. Fine mapping of the MAb determinants was performed using defined 15-mer synthetic peptides spanning the entire envelope gp120 region of HIV-1. One group of MAbs recognizes epitopes (amino acids 304-323) occurring in a small region with variable and conserved amino acid sequences of gp120. These MAbs mediate neutralization of the HIV-1 strain HTLV-IIIB (HIV-1IIIB) which was used for immunization. Nine out of 11 primary HIV-1 isolates were neutralized well or moderately well. In addition, prominent serological reactivity was noted with peptide sequences of strains of various European or American origins, but not with two HIV-1 strains of African origin. The cross-reactivity contrasts with previously described type-specific reactions to other sequences of this region. The reactivity to the short conserved site GPGR with its flanking amino acids may explain the broad sequence cross-reactivity seen with our neutralizing MAbs. Two other MAbs recognize conserved epitopes (amino acids 79-103) situated in the amino-terminal region of gp120. These MAbs did not neutralize HIV-1IIIB.
