Limited neutralizing antibody specificities drive neutralization escape in early HIV-1 subtype C infection.

We previously showed that HIV-1 subtype C viruses elicit potent but highly type-specific neutralizing antibodies (nAb) within the first year of infection. In order to determine the specificity and evolution of these autologous nAbs, we examined neutralization escape in four individuals whose respons...
