Despite advances in HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env)-based vaccine design, eliciting broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) remains a central challenge. Here, we identify core α(1,3)-fucose as a key modulator of neutralizing antibody (NAb) induction and breadth. Uncleaved prefusion-optimized (UFO) trimers and self-as...
Current influenza vaccines primarily target hemagglutinin (HA), the major viral surface glycoprotein and principal determinant of neutralizing antibody (NAb) responses. However, antigenic drift and shift, together with HA’s intrinsic metastability and low-pH sensitivity, limit broad and durable vaccine protection. Here...
Describing the genetic, structural, functional, and epitope features of 25 BD-directed nAbs isolated from HCV-infected individuals or immunized macaques underscores BD as a promising target for rational HCV vaccine design.
