Antibody recognition of HIV and dengue glycoproteins

Glycobiology. 2016 Aug;26(8):813-9. doi: 10.1093/glycob/cww031. Epub 2016 Mar 3.

Abstract

The last 6 years have witnessed an explosion of discoveries at the interface of glycobiology and immunology. Binding of clustered oligosaccharides has turned out to be a very frequent mode by which human antibodies have developed broadly neutralizing activity against HIV. This mini-review will cover many recent developments in the HIV antibody field, as well as emerging data about Dengue broadly neutralizing antibodies.

Keywords: Dengue broadly neutralizing antibodies; HIV broadly neutralizing antibodies; glycoproteins; multivalency; protein–carbohydrate interactions.
