“…Convergence of neutralizing antibody targeting in HIV-1 infection and vaccination results do suggest that Z1800M T/F Env gp120-based regimens can reproducibly elicit V5 targeted nAb. Indeed, other studies including our own have described V5 loop targeting on other HIV-1 strains by autologous nAb following vaccination, HIV-1 infection, and SHIV infection of RM, including in settings involving the CD4bs and development of breadth [6,8,12,13,58,61,[65][66][67][68][69][70]. The predictability of nAb targeting against this Env, in the vicinity of the CD4bs, the eventual development of heterologous neutralization breadth, and the availability of longitudinal samples and sequences, makes this T/F Env and its longitudinal variants a strong candidate for further immunogen design.…”
