The Mapping and Characterization of a Novel Binding Site on HIV-1 Gp120 for The
The mapping and characterization of a novel binding site on HIV-1 gp120 for the broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibody IgG1 b12 by Jillian Waruk A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Medical Microbiology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2011 by Jillian Waruk Abstract HIV infects target cells via fusion events following surface envelope glycoprotein binding to the CD4 receptor and a chemokine co-receptor. Despite the high sequence variability of envelope across and within HIV-1 subtypes, this process requires conserved sequences and structures on gp120, which also represent good targets for HIV-1 neutralizing antibodies. Few examples of HIV-1 broadly neutralizing antibodies exist, but these antibodies may hold the key to a protective HIV-1 vaccine. One such antibody, IgG1 b12 (b12), binds the CD4 binding site on the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein gp120. To date, no vaccine preparations have been able to elicit a b12-like response. A complete understanding of the mechanism of b12 binding to gp120 is essential to successful design of an b12-like immune response. Until now, strategies to map the b12 binding site on gp120 have utilized indirect techniques and/or core gp120 and have shown that b12 binds to a site on gp120 that overlaps the CD4 binding site. To more directly map the b12 epitope on intact gp120, epitope excision mass spectrometry mapping was carried out in the MALDI QqTOF platform. The putative epitope sequence was confirmed by tandem mass spectrometry sequencing. -
Worldrenowned HIV Researcher Frank Plummer, 67, Dies
2/5/2020 Worldrenowned HIV researcher Frank Plummer, 67, dies BBC News Home News Sport Reel Worklife Travel Future Worldrenowned HIV researcher Frank Plummer, 67, dies 5 hours ago BROOKE WEDLOCK/UNIVERSITY OF MANITOBA Frank Plummer, a "scientific maverick" whose research had a profound impact on global public health, has died. The worldrenowned microbiologist was most widely recognised for his groundbreaking work on understanding HIV transmission. Dr Plummer, 67, was also recognised for leadership roles in the Sars, H1N1 flu and Ebola epidemics. He had recently spoken publicly about undergoing experimental brain surgery to treat alcoholism. The researcher died while in Kenya to celebrate the 40th anniversary of a research collaboration between the University of Manitoba and University of Nairobi, reportedly of a heart attack. "Today we lost a giant," said Dr Brian Postl, a former classmate of Dr Plummer's at the University of Manitoba. "Back in medical school, Frank was clearly a creative thinker and amongst our accomplished MD Class of 1976, distinguished himself as a true leader and visionary." https://www.bbc.com/news/worlduscanada51317386 1/6 2/5/2020 Worldrenowned HIV researcher Frank Plummer, 67, dies BBC News Dr Digvir Jayas, of the University of Manitoba, said Dr Plummer's "contributions have had a cumulative global impact on saving the lives of tens of thousands of people for decades and also improving the lives of HIVpositive people around the world". Among his findings was that HIV could be transmitted between mothers and babies through breast milk. He also did work with Nairobi sex workers, showing that a small percentage of them showed an immunity to the disease. -

Proviral HIV-1 Hypermutation: the Correlation of APOBEC3G/F and HIV-1 Vif in HIV-1 Disease Progression
Proviral HIV-1 Hypermutation: The Correlation of APOBEC3G/F and HIV-1 Vif in HIV-1 Disease Progression by Sujata Monika De A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba Copyright © 2011 by Sujata M. De Abstract APOBEC3 proteins, in particular APOBEC3G/F, are important innate host factors that contribute to protection from HIV-1 infection by inducing high levels of guanine to adenine nucleotide substitutions (termed hypermutation) during HIV-1 viral replication. These nucleotide substitutions occur at different rates and locations across the HIV-1 genome and are thought to be particularly more frequent in the pol region. The virus has evolved ways to counteract these host factors by inducing degradation of APOBEC3G/F proteins through protein interactions with HIV-1 Vif. The aim of this thesis is to characterize and investigate the role of APOBEC3G/F-mediated hypermutation in the HIV-1 genome. We identified a subset of women from the Pumwani Commercial Sex Worker (CSW) cohort with significantly higher rates of hypermutated proviruses in pol. This degree of hypermutation correlated to less severe HIV disease progression as measured by CD4+ T cell count. This was in agreement with previous studies that evidence of APOBEC-mediated hypermutation correlate with reduced disease progression, confirming APOBEC3G/F proteins role in HIV-1 disease. Furthermore, we investigated the in vitro and ex vivo interaction between HIV-1 Vif and APOBEC3G from subjects infected with hypermutated and non-hypermutated proviruses. -

Statement of Votes Relevé Des Suffrages
Statement of Votes for the 38th Provincial General Election June 3, 2003 Relevé des suffrages pour la 38e élection générale provinciale le 3 juin 2003 Historical Summaries/ Comptes rendus d’élection précédentes Summary of Election Procedures in Manitoba 1870 to 1999 In examining historical election results it is important to be aware of the legislation that existed at the time the elections were held. What follows is a summary of the evolution of electoral law in Manitoba designed to accompany the Historical Summary that follows. Many of the dates given are for the year the new procedures were first used. In many cases, however, the legislation was passed in the years preceding the election. 1870 • The standard voting procedure was public declaration of one's preference at a constituency meeting. The electoral officer recorded the votes, and the simple plurality (or 'first-past-the-post') system was used to elect members for the 24 seats in the Legislative Assembly. • Only males owning property were eligible to vote. 1888 • The property qualification was eliminated. • The secret ballot was used for the first time. • Residence requirement raised to six months in province and one month in the electoral division. 1892 • Growth in population and territorial expansion were reflected by an increase in the Assembly's seats. By 1892, there were 40 seats in the Assembly. • Persons receiving a government salary of $350 or more annually could not vote. • Fee to file nomination papers is $200. 1894 • Residency requirements changed to three months in electoral division and one year in province. 1900 • Persons receiving government salary could vote.
