Conformational flexibility of HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins modulates transmitted / founder sensitivity to broadly neutralizing antibodies

Durgadevi Parthasarathy, Karunakar Reddy Pothula, Kim-Marie A. Dam…·Alon Herschhorn

This paper shows that some HIV-1 transmitted/founder Envs are incompletely closed, making them sensitive to antibodies targeting open conformations, and highlights the importance of Env conformational flexibility for bnAb neutralization.
