Evolution of an HIV glycan–dependent broadly neutralizing antibody epitope through immune escape.
(Nature Publishing Group., 2012)Neutralizing antibodies are likely to play a crucial part in a preventative HIV-1 vaccine. Although efforts to elicit broadly cross-neutralizing (BCN) antibodies by vaccination have been unsuccessful, a minority of individuals ... -
