ABSTRACT
The vaccine elicitation of HIV tier-2-neutralization antibodies has been a challenge. Here, we report the isolation and characterization of a CD4-binding site (CD4bs) specific monoclonal antibody, HmAb64, from a human volunteer immunized with a polyvalent DNA prime-protein boost HIV vaccine. HmAb64 is derived from heavy chain variable germline gene IGHV1-18 and light chain germline gene IGKV1-39. It has a third heavy chain complementarity-determining region (CDR H3) of 15 amino acids. On a cross-clade panel of 208 HIV-1 pseudo-virus strains, HmAb64 neutralized 20 (10%), including tier-2 strains from clades B, BC, C, and G. The cryo-EM structure of the antigen-binding fragment of HmAb64 in complex with a CNE40 SOSIP trimer revealed details of its recognition; HmAb64 uses both heavy and light CDR3s to recognize the CD4-binding loop, a critical component of the CD4bs. This study demonstrates that a gp120-based vaccine can elicit antibodies capable of tier 2-HIV neutralization.
