This protocol describes a pseudovirus assay that measures neutralization of HIV, SIV and SHIV as a function of reductions in Tat-regulated Luc reporter gene expression after a single round of infectio
BackgroundNeutralizing antibodies provide markers for vaccine-induced protective immunity in many viral infections. By analogy, HIV-1 neutralizing antibodies induced by immunization may well predict v
