Asymmetric antiviral effects of ebolavirus antibodies targeting glycoprotein stem and glycan cap.

Recent studies suggest that some monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific for ebolavirus glycoprotein (GP) can protect experimental animals against infections. Most mAbs isolated from ebolavirus survivors appeared to target the glycan cap or the stalk region of the viral GP, which is the envelope prote...
