An object of the present invention is to provide a polynucleotide encoding a novel immunogenic HIV polypeptide. The present invention provides a polynucleotide encoding a novel immunogenic HIV polypeptide. Also provided is the use of the polynucleotide in applications including immunization, production of packaging cell lines, and production of HIV polypeptides. Polynucleotides encoding antigenic HIV polypeptides are provided, and the use of these polynucleotides and polypeptide products derived therefrom (including formulation of immunogenic compositions and their use) is also provided. In certain embodiments, the present invention relates to synthetic polynucleotides and / or expression cassettes that encode HIV polypeptides. [Selection figure] None |
