HIV-1 p24(gag) derived conserved element DNA vaccine increases the breadth of immune response in mice.

Viral diversity is considered a major impediment to the development of an effective HIV-1 vaccine. Despite this diversity, certain protein segments are nearly invariant across the known HIV-1 Group M sequences. We developed immunogens based on the highly conserved elements from the p24(gag) region a...
