Inadequate structural constraint on Fab approach rather than paratope elicitation limits HIV-1 MPER vaccine utility
2023-06-29
Abstract excerpt
Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) against HIV-1 target conserved epitopes, thereby inhibiting viral entry. Yet surprisingly, those recognizing linear epitopes in the HIV-1 gp41 membrane proximal external region (MPER) are elicited neither by peptide nor protein scaffold vaccines. Here, we observe that while Abs generated by MPER/liposome vaccines may exhibit human bnAb-like paratopes, B-cell programming with...
