The use of recombinant antibodies developed through phage display technology offers a promising approach for combating viral infectious diseases. By specifically targeting antigens on viral surfaces, these antibodies have the potential to reduce the ...

Bat humoral immunity and its role in viral pathogenesis, transmission, and zoonosis
Bats harbor viruses that can cause severe disease and death in humans including filoviruses (e.g., Ebola virus), henipaviruses (e.g., Hendra virus), and coronaviruses (e.g., SARS-CoV).

The molecular reach of antibodies crucially underpins their viral neutralisation capacity
Key functions of antibodies, such as viral neutralisation, depend on high-affinity binding. However, viral neutralisation poorly correlates with antigen affinity for reasons that have been unclear. Here, we use a new mechanistic model of bivalent binding

Background: Acute viral infections induce a rapid and transient increase in antibody-secreting plasmablasts. At convalescence, memory B cells (MBC) and long-lived plasma cells (LLPC) are responsible for long-term humoral immunity.

Antibody control and immunopathogenesis of viral infection
Across the animal kingdom, multivalency discriminates antibodies from all other immunoglobulin superfamily members. The evolutionary forces conserving multivalency above any other structural hallmark of antibodies remain, however, ill-defined. Here we have used antibody engineering techniques to investigate mechanisms of protection of neutralizing and ...
