Functional Convergence of Genetically Diverse B-Cell Receptors in Simian-HIV Infected Rhesus Macaques

Shengli Song, Hui Joyce Li, Chen‐Hao Yeh, Akiko Watanabe, Masayuki Kuraoka, Hongmei Gao, Xiaoying Shen, Celia C. LaBranche, Wilton B. Williams, Kevin O. Saunders, Michael Anthony Moody, Kevin J. Wiehe, David C. Montefiori, Barton F. Haynes, George M. Shaw, Garnett H. Kelsoe

The paper investigates whether genetically diverse B-cell receptor responses in simian-HIV infected macaques converge functionally, finding that functional convergence does not require genetic convergence.
