Enhanced B cell priming induces broadly neutralizing HIV-1 apex antibodies
Abstract Efficient priming of B cell precursors is a rate-limiting step in the induction of V2 apex broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs)1,2. Here, we describe a novel germline-targeted HIV-1 Env (CAP256.OPT4) that increases the efficiency of V2 apex bNAb precursor priming by 30-400 fold compared with wild-type HIV-1 Envs and induces – in >90% of macaques – neutralization breadth that includes N130-containing viruses.
Mechanistic and antigenic boundaries of Henipavirus and Parahenipavirus glycoproteins

Abstract Henipaviruses, in the Paramyxoviridae family, includes the highly virulent Nipah virus that causes reoccurring outbreaks of deadly disease. Recent discoveries of Henipavirus-like species, including the zoonotic Langya virus, have revealed much higher antigenic diversity than currently characterized and prompted the reorganization of these viruses into the Henipavirus and Parahenipavirus genera.

A neutralizing human antibody induces movement of the HCoV-229E receptor binding domain - Communications Biology
Abstract HCoV-229E is an endemic Alphacoronavirus that typically causes common cold-like disease in most healthy adults, but can also cause severe respiratory disease in the very young and the elderly. Although the virus was discovered over sixty years ago and undergoes continuous antigenic drift, remarkably little is known about the humoral immune response to HCoV-229E infection.
