The paper shows that clonotype-restricted somatic hypermutations (SHMs) are associated with cryptic epitope recognition, while shared SHMs are permissive and not specific to particular epitopes.

The paper develops a yeast surface display library of bat antibodies to study humoral immunity to H9 influenza hemagglutinin, revealing structural and functional characteristics of bat antibodies.

The paper characterizes early vaccine-induced antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, showing some are broad and potent while others are more variant-sensitive.

Booster SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine recruits and broadens GC B cell responses targeting a highly conserved site on receptor binding domain of spike glycoprotein.

This study evaluates monoclonal antibody responses to XBB.1.5 vaccines by analyzing plasmablasts from vaccinated individuals and characterizing their binding and neutralization properties against SARS-CoV-2 variants.

The paper identifies conserved sites on influenza H1 and H3 hemagglutinin recognized by human antibodies and characterizes their neutralization potential and escape pathways.

The paper identifies clonotype-enriched mutations in the light chain of a public antibody that enhance affinity for a conserved viral epitope and increase after repeated vaccinations.

This study identifies non-neutralizing antibodies from vaccinated individuals that protect against SARS-CoV-2 in animal models, highlighting their role through Fc-mediated effector functions and conserved epitope binding.
