Immunological complex comprising an antigen of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) and an antibody against human immunodeficiency virus type 2 (HIV 2), and method and kit for detecting antibodies to HIV-2 reactive with antigens of SIV
The invention relates to a new variety of retroviruses designated Immunodeficiency Virus Type II, HIV-II, samples of which have been deposited at CNCM as I-502 and I-532. It also concerns purified forms of the antigens which can be obtained from this virus, in particular from the gp 36 and gp 130-140 proteins. These various antigens are useful in medical diagnosis and kits, in particular by being placed in contact with serum of the patient to be diagnosed. Lastly, the invention relates to immunizing compositions, in particular containing at least one of glycoproteins gp 36 and gp 130-140.
