Abstract

The article reports on the mimicry of an HIV infection in neutralizing antibody (bnAbs) epitope with a synthetic glycopeptide. It cites on the goal of the HIV vaccine in overcoming virus variability in inducing bnAbs. The article also reports on the study of ontogeny of the V3-glycan bnAb DH270 lineage in which an unmutated common ancestor (UCA) antibody for the DH270 lineage did not bind HIV-1 Env glycoprotein.
