1QNZ - PubMed Abstract: 
The protein 0.5beta is a potent strain-specific human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) neutralizing antibody raised against the entire envelope glycoprotein (gp120) of the HIV-1(IIIB) strain. The epitope recognized by 0.5beta is located within the third hypervariable region (V3) of gp120. Recently, several HIV-1 V3 residues involved in co-receptor utilization and selection were identified.
