Co-evolution of a broadly neutralizing HIV-1 antibody and founder virus

TL;DR: The isolation, evolution and structure of a broadly neutralizing antibody from an African donor followed from the time of infection and its co-crystal structure revealed a new loop-based mechanism of CD4-binding-site recognition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiolipin Polyspecific Autoreactivity in Two Broadly Neutralizing HIV-1 Antibodies

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the two most broadly reactive HIV-1 envelope gp41 human mAbs, 2F5 and 4E10, are polyspecific autoantibodies reactive with the phospholipid cardiolipin, which may have important implications for generating effective neutralizing antibody responses by using HIV- 1 vaccines.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Antibody Polyspecificity and Lipid Reactivity in Binding of Broadly Neutralizing Anti-HIV-1 Envelope Human Monoclonal Antibodies 2F5 and 4E10 to Glycoprotein 41 Membrane Proximal Envelope Epitopes

TL;DR: The similarity of 2F5 and 4E10 mAbs to known anti-cardiolipin Abs is compared and the model that mAb 2f5 and4E10 binding to HIV-1 involves both viral lipid membrane and gp41 membrane proximal epitopes is supported.
