Human sera were tested for the presence of anti-nef antibodies by radioimmunoassay (RIA), with recombinant radiolabelled nef expressed in E. coli. Of the 300 HIV-positive sera tested by RIA, 70 +/- 5.3% were found to be anti-nef positive. Anti-nef antibodies bound to nef with a high affinity (K 0.5 = 2.2 x 10(-9) M). In 31 of the sera, the specificity of anti-nef antibodies was further analysed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with large synthetic peptides ranging from 31 to 66 amino acid residues and spanning the total sequence of nef from HIV-1. The results obtained showed that the immunodominant antigenic sites of nef were located close to the N- and C-terminal regions of the molecule.
