Monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) to the major gag core protein p27 and a viral protein p44 of type D retrovirus (SRV‐2) were produced and used in the detection of SRV‐2 antigens in infected Raji cells and in tissues from macaques with simian acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (SAIDS) and retroperitoneal fibromatosis (RF). Anti‐p44 MoAb showed inhibition of syncytium formation by both SRV‐1‐ and SRV‐2‐infected Raji cells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
