A rare mutation in an infant derived HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein alters interprotomer stability and susceptibility to broadly neutralizing antibodies targeting the trimer apex
2020-04-29
Abstract excerpt
The envelope glycoprotein (Env) of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) is the sole target of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs). Several mechanisms, such as acquisition of mutations due to the error prone reverse transcriptase, variability of loop length and alterations in glycan pattern are employed by the virus to shield neutralizing epitopes on the env, to sustain survival and infectivity within the hos...
