Understanding the immune responses elicited by candidate vaccines is key for approval, including characterisation of antibody epitopes recognised and capacity for neutralisation.
METHODS: Here we used negative-stain electron microscopy polyclonal antibody epitope mapping (EMPEM), in-vitro pseudovirus neutralisation assays, and biophysical antibody competition assays to uncover components of polyclonal antibody responses elicited in nonhuman primates 26 days after receipt of a single immunisation with a fully protective, recombinant, replication-competent vesicular stomatitis virus-based vaccine bearing the Lassa virus glycoprotein GPC.
FINDINGS: Although the vaccinee sera are overall poorly-neutralising, we do directly visualise, within the polyclonal pool, antibodies targeting epitopes on GPC that are consistent with neutralisation, as well as competition with known neutralising mAbs. Nearly every animal, for example, produced antibodies that compete with mAbs against GP1-A and GPC-A neutralising epitopes. The most abundant classes of antibodies, however, are directed against interior interfaces of GPC, while other antibodies recognise post-fusion GPC epitopes not consistent with neutralisation.
INTERPRETATION: It may be that some individual antibodies in the pool are neutralising, but that the abundance of non-neutralising epitopes reduces potency as measured at the polyclonal level. The finding, however, neutralisation-consistent sites and competition with known neutralising antibodies are important steps in vaccine design toward eliciting more potent neutralisation.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.
