Envelope variation as a primary determinant of lentiviral vaccine efficacy

Abstract excerpt

Lentiviral envelope antigenic variation and associated immune evasion are believed to present major obstacles to effective vaccine development. Although this perception is widely assumed by the scientific community, there is, to date, no rigorous experimental data assessing the effect of increasing levels of lentiviral Env variation on vaccine efficacy. It is our working hypothesis that Env is, in fact, a primary...
