The N-linked oligomannose glycans of HIV gp120 are a target for both microbicide and vaccine design. The extent of cross-clade conservation of HIV oligomannose glycans is therefore a critical consideration for the development of HIV prophylaxes. We measured the oligomannose content of virion-associated gp120 from primary virus from PBMCs for a range of viral isolates and showed cross-clade elevation (62-79%) of these glycans relative to recombinant, monomeric gp120 (~30%). We also confirmed that pseudoviral production systems can give rise to notably elevated gp120 oligomannose levels (~98%), compared to gp120 derived from a single-plasmid viral system using the HIV LAI backbone (56%). This study highlights differences in glycosylation between virion-associated and recombinant gp120.

Abstract

The N-linked oligomannose glycans of HIV gp120 are a target for both microbicide and vaccine design. The extent of cross-clade conservation of HIV oligomannose glycans is therefore a critical consideration for the development of HIV prophylaxes. We measured the oligomannose content of virion-associated gp120 from primary virus from PBMCs for a range of viral isolates and showed cross-clade elevation (62-79%) of these glycans relative to recombinant, monomeric gp120 (~30%). We also confirmed that pseudoviral production systems can give rise to notably elevated gp120 oligomannose levels (~98%), compared to gp120 derived from a single-plasmid viral system using the HIV LAI backbone (56%). This study highlights differences in glycosylation between virion-associated and recombinant gp120.
