Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a method of synthesizing genes encoding unique HIV-2 envelope proteins and their fragments, thereby allowing overexpression of these proteins in E. coli. The HIV envelope proteins and their fragments have been expressed at high levels as individual proteins or in fusion with other proteins. The HIV envelope proteins thus expressed in E. coli can be effectively used for the detection of exposure to HIV-2 as well as the discrimination of HIV-1 and HIV-2.
