Human broadly neutralizing antibodies against the membrane-proximal external region of HIV Env for vaccine design and intervention

The present disclosure relates to anti-HIV antibodies and their use in the treatment or prevention of HIV/AIDS and in the development of HIV vaccines.

Compositions and methods for membrane protein structure determination

Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for determining the structure of a membrane protein. An epitope from a membrane-proximal external region (MPER) from a viral envelope protein can be grafted on to a variety of diverse membrane proteins to allow for binding structurally characterized antibody fragments, which can aid structural studies. ##STR00001##
