Sequencing HIV-neutralizing antibody exons and introns reveals detailed aspects of lineage maturation

Knowledge on how antibody responses have evolved is critical for the induction of protective immunity. Here the authors analyse, using high-throughput sequencing of both exon and intron regions, the mutation and lineage development of an HIV-neutralizing antibody to find an unexpected early emergenc...
