Abstract
Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) targeting the HIV-1 CD4-binding site (CD4bs) occur infrequently in macaques and humans and have not been reproducibly elicited in any outbred animal model. To address this challenge, we first isolated RHA10, an infection-induced rhesus bNAb with 51% breadth. The cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of RHA10 with the HIV-1 envelope (Env) resembled prototypic human CD4bs bNAbs with CDR-H3-dominated binding. Env-antibody co-evolution revealed transient elimination of two Env CD4bs-proximal glycans near the time of RHA10-lineage initiation, and these glycan-deficient Envs bound preferentially to early RHA10 intermediates, suggesting that glycan deletions in infecting SHIVs could induce CD4bs bNAbs. To test this hypothesis, we constructed SHIV.CH505 variants with CD4bs-proximal glycan deletions. Infection of 11 macaques resulted in accelerated CD4bs bNAb responses in 9 compared with 1 of 115 control macaques. Glycan hole-based immunofocusing coupled to Env-Ab co-evolution can consistently induce broad CD4bs responses in macaques and serve as a model for HIV vaccine design.
期刊介绍:
Cell Reports publishes high-quality research across the life sciences and focuses on new biological insight as its primary criterion for publication. The journal offers three primary article types: Reports, which are shorter single-point articles, research articles, which are longer and provide deeper mechanistic insights, and resources, which highlight significant technical advances or major informational datasets that contribute to biological advances. Reviews covering recent literature in emerging and active fields are also accepted.
The Cell Reports Portfolio includes gold open-access journals that cover life, medical, and physical sciences, and its mission is to make cutting-edge research and methodologies available to a wide readership.
The journal's professional in-house editors work closely with authors, reviewers, and the scientific advisory board, which consists of current and future leaders in their respective fields. The advisory board guides the scope, content, and quality of the journal, but editorial decisions are independently made by the in-house scientific editors of Cell Reports.
