Human respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) membrane fusion is promoted by the formation of a trimer-of-hairpins structure that brings the amino- and carboxyl-terminal regions of fusion (F) protein into close proximity. Two heptad-repeat (HR1 and HR2) regions in F protein play an important role in this process. Our previous study demonstrated that peptides derived from HR1 and HR2 regions of F protein were potent inhibitors of hRSV entry. Here we showed that HR1 peptide and its analog denoted 5-Helix which contained a central coiled-coil formed by three HR1s could induce highly potent antibody response in the immunized rabbits. Both antibodies could recognize F1 domain of the F protein and inhibited hRSV entry with the neutralizing antibody titers of 1:61 and 1:115, respectively. These suggested that 5-Helix could induce potent neutralizing antibody response and the central coiled-coil might be a highly conserved neutralization site for hRSV F protein.
