Engaging an HIV vaccine target through the acquisition of low B cell affinity

Abstract Low affinity is common for germline B cell receptors (BCR) seeding development of broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) that engage hypervariable viruses, including HIV. Antibody affinity selection is also non-homogenizing, insuring the survival of low affinity B cell clones. To explore w...
