“…Antisera that exhibit broadly neutralizing activity against diverse HIV-1 isolates have been observed in some long-term non-progressors (LTNP) (Braibant et al, 2006;Cecilia et al, 1999;Pilgrim et al, 1997). However, they are rare; despite over two decades of AIDS research, only a handful of broadly reactive Nabs (BR-Nabs) have been identified, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) b12, 2G12, 447-52D, 2F5, 4E10 and m48 (Gorny et al, 1992;Muster et al, 1993;Roben et al, 1994;Stiegler et al, 2001;Trkola et al, 1996;Zhang et al, 2006;Zwick et al, 2001). While the first three antibodies are gp120-specific, the latter three target gp41.…”
