Highly mutated antibodies capable of neutralizing N276 glycan-deficient HIV after a single immunization with an Env trimer [PDF]

open access: goldCell Reports, 2022
Summary: Elicitation of HIV broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) is challenging because unmutated bnAb precursors are rare and seldom bind HIV envelope glycoprotein (Env) trimers.

Engineering SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies for increased potency and reduced viral escape pathways

open access: goldiScience, 2022
Summary: The rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants poses a constant threat of escape from monoclonal antibody and vaccine countermeasures. Mutations in the ACE2 receptor binding site on the surface S protein have been shown to disrupt antibody binding and ...

Cooperativity Enables Non-neutralizing Antibodies to Neutralize Ebolavirus [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Summary: Drug combinations are synergistic when their combined efficacy exceeds the sum of the individual actions, but they rarely include ineffective drugs that become effective only in combination. We identified several “enabling pairs” of neutralizing

Combining a rhesus cytomegalovirus/SIV vaccine with a neutralizing antibody to protect against SIV challenges in rhesus macaques [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
A vaccine is considered essential for controlling the HIV pandemic and ultimately eradicating AIDS. Neutralizing antibodies and MHC-E-restricted CD8+ T cells have shown the ability to protect against the simian counterpart of HIV, SIV, in rhesus macaques.

Molecular insights into antibody-mediated protection against the prototypic simian immunodeficiency virus

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
SIVmac239 infection of macaques is a favored model of human HIV infection, but antibody-mediated protection for SIVmac239 is insufficiently understood.

The diversity of the glycan shield of sarbecoviruses related to SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Animal reservoirs of sarbecoviruses represent a significant risk of emergent pandemics, as evidenced by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic.

Efficient isolation of rare B cells using next-generation antigen barcoding

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
The ability to efficiently isolate antigen-specific B cells in high throughput will greatly accelerate the discovery of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and catalyze rational vaccine development.

Kinetics of the neutralizing antibody response to respiratory syncytial virus infections in a birth cohort [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The kinetics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) neutralizing antibodies following birth, primary and secondary infections are poorly defined. The aims of the study were to measure and compare neutralizing antibody responses at different time points in ...

Cleavage-Independent HIV-1 Env Trimers Engineered as Soluble Native Spike Mimetics for Vaccine Design

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Viral glycoproteins mediate entry by pH-activated or receptor-engaged activation and exist in metastable pre-fusogenic states that may be stabilized by directed rational design. As recently reported, the conformationally fixed HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein
