Abstract

Anti-HIV Antibodies: One of the top priorities for an HIV vaccine is the ability to elicit a broadly neutralizing antibody response, which should provide the best protection against infection. In the 25 years since the discovery of HIV, very few broadly neutralizing antibodies have been identified, and those that do exist were discovered nearly two decades ago. Using a high-throughput culture system, Walker et al. (p. 285 ; published online 3 September) now identify two additional broadly neutralizing antibodies isolated from a clade A HIV-infected African donor. These antibodies exhibit great potency and, in contrast to other known broadly neutralizing antibodies, are able to neutralize a wide range of viruses from many different clades. The antibodies recognize a motif in the trimerized viral envelope protein that is found in conserved regions of the variable loops of the gp120 subunit. Identification of this motif provides an intriguing new target for vaccine development.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
