Consistent Induction of Broadly Neutralizing HIV Antibodies by a Novel Two-Step Mechanism Informs Immunogen Design

This study shows a novel two-step mechanism for inducing broadly neutralizing HIV antibodies in macaques using a modified SHIV, informing vaccine design.

Transient glycan-shield reduction induces CD4-binding site broadly neutralizing antibodies in SHIV-infected macaques

This study shows that transient glycan deletions in SHIVs can induce CD4-binding site broadly neutralizing antibodies in macaques, offering a model for HIV vaccine design.

Env-antibody coevolution identifies B cell priming as the principal bottleneck to HIV-1 V2 apex broadly neutralizing antibody development

The paper identifies B cell priming as the main obstacle to developing HIV-1 V2 apex broadly neutralizing antibodies in SHIV-infected macaques.

Urine as a high-quality source of host genomic DNA from wild populations

This study evaluates DNA quality from urine and other sources in wild chimpanzees, finding urine provides higher DNA quantity and quality for genomic analysis.
