HIV envelope antigen valency on peptide nanofibers modulates antibody magnitude and binding breadth

Abstract A major challenge in developing an effective vaccine against HIV-1 is the genetic diversity of its viral envelope. Because of the broad range of sequences exhibited by HIV-1 strains, protective antibodies must be able to bind and neutralize a widely mutated viral envelope protein. No vaccin...
