Fig 5. Neutralization of NQST- V3 loop mutants by RANTES.

Fig 5

For each of the three viruses NL-952.1, NL-952.2 and NL-952.3, nine mutants containing amino acids N, Q, S and T at the V3 position 9, 10 and/or 11 were tested for neutralization by RANTES. GHOST-R5 cells were infected with an amount of virus representing about 100 ffu. RANTES was added to a final concentration of 125, 250, 500 and 1000 ng/ml. All 27 viruses were R5-monotropic since they showed no growth on GHOST-X4 cells (see also Table 1). Shown are the means and standard deviations based on ten experiments.
