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...
A major goal for hepatitis C virus (HCV) vaccine development is to elicit broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) against the E1E2 glycoprotein complex located on the viral surface. Inducing HCV bNAbs requires engagement of their germline B cell precursors. HCV glycoproteins usually do not bind and activate inferred ge...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) affects 47 million people and causes 239,000 deaths annually, yet no vaccine is on the horizon. Generating a stable native-like mimic of the envelope complex E1E2, the only target for known neutralizing antibodies, is an important aim for HCV vaccine development. Starting from a recombinant E1E2...
