      Focal accumulation of aromaticity at the CDRH3 loop mitigates 4E10 polyreactivity without altering its HIV neutralization profile 

      Rujas Díez, Edurne; Leaman, Daniel P.; Insausti González, Sara; Carravilla Palomanes, Pablo ORCID; García Porras, Miguel; Largo Pereda, Eneko; Morillo Melero, Izaskun; Sánchez Eugenia, Rubén ORCID; Zhang, Lei; Cui, Hong; Iloro, Ibon; Elortza, Felix; Julien, Jean-Philippe; Eggeling, Christian; Zwick, Michael B.; Caaveiro, Jose M.M.; Nieva Escandón, José Luis (Cell Press, 2021-09-24)
      Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) against HIV-1 are frequently associated with the presence of autoreactivity/polyreactivity, a property that can limit their use as therapeutic agents. The bnAb 4E10, targeting the ...

      Molecular recognition of a membrane-anchored HIV-1 pan-neutralizing epitope. 

      Torralba Iturbe, Johana ORCID; De la Arada Echevarría, Igor ORCID; Partida Hanon, Angélica; Rujas Díez, Edurne; Arribas, Madalen; Insausti Gonzalez, Sara; Valotteau, Claire; Valle García, Javier; Andreu, David; Caaveiro, Jose M.M.; Jiménez, María Ángeles; Apellaniz Unzalu, Beatriz ORCID; Redondo Morata, Lorena; Nieva Escandón, José Luis (Nature, 2022)
      Antibodies against the carboxy-terminal section of the membrane-proximal external region (C-MPER) of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) are considered as nearly pan-neutralizing. Development of vaccines capable of ...
