I'm proud of our new study showing that some people born in the 1990s have high levels of antibodies that cross-react to H3 viruses from the 1990s and....contemporary H1N1 viruses. Such a surprising story led by Grace Li, in collaboration with many Penn-CEIRR labs. 1/

Childhood immunological imprinting of cross-subtype antibodies targeting the hemagglutinin head domain of influenza viruses
Influenza virus cross-subtype antibodies targeting the hemagglutinin (HA) head are rare. Here, we found that a large proportion of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) isolated from individuals immunized with...

Just published in Nature Communications!🎆

We show how a recurring motif in antibody CDR H3 mimics sialic acid at the influenza neuraminidase active site, allowing broad binding and making it a promising vaccine target!💡🦠

Structural basis of broad protection against influenza virus by human antibodies targeting the neuraminidase active site via a recurring motif in CDR H3 - Nature Communications
Recurrent features in human antibodies targeting the influenza neuraminidase active site reveal a convergent strategy of receptor mimicry, providing structural insights that could guide the design of ...
