Neutralizing antiviral antibody responses
Neutralizing antibodies are evolutionarily important effectors of immunity against viruses. Their evaluation has revealed a number of basic insights into specificity, rules of reactivity (tolerance), and memory—namely, (1) Specificity of neutralizing antibodies is defined by their capacity to distinguish between virus serotypes; (2) B cell reactivity ...

Neutralizing antibodies against coronaviruses [PDF]
Neutralizing monoclonal antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 are being used as therapeutics against COVID-19. The Bjorkman laboratory is investigating the mechanisms of virus neutralization by human antibodies that bind the SARSCoV- 2 spike protein. Using structural techniques, including single-particle cryoelectron microscopy and X-ray crystallography, the ...

Evidence for West Nile Virus and Usutu Virus Infections in Wild and Resident Birds in Germany, 2017 and 2018 [PDF]
Wild birds play an important role as reservoir hosts and vectors for zoonotic arboviruses and foster their spread. Usutu virus (USUV) has been circulating endemically in Germany since 2011, while West Nile virus (WNV) was first diagnosed in several bird ...
