Yeast Display Reveals Plentiful Mutations That Improve Fusion Peptide Vaccine-Elicited Antibodies Beyond 59% HIV-1 Neutralization Breadth.

PubMed Abstract: : Vaccine elicitation of antibodies with high HIV-1 neutralization breadth is a long-standing goal. Recently, the induction of such antibodies has been achieved at the fusion peptide site of vulnerability. Questions remain, however, as to how much anti-fusion peptide antibodies can be improved and whether their neutralization breadth and potency are sufficient to prevent HIV-1 infection. : Here, we use yeast display coupled with deep mutational screening and biochemical and structural analyses to study the improvement of the best fusion peptide-directed, vaccine-elicited antibody, DFPH_a.01, with an initial 59% breadth. : Yeast display identified both single and double mutations that improved recognition of HIV-1 envelope trimers. We characterized two paratope-distal light chain (LC) mutations, S10R and S59P, which together increased breadth to 63%. Biochemical analysis demonstrated DFPH-a.01_10R59P-LC, and its component mutations, to have increased affinity and stability. Cryo-EM structural analysis revealed elbow-angle influencing by S10R-LC and isosteric positioning by S59P-LC as explanations for enhanced breadth, affinity, and stability. : These results, along with another antibody with enhanced performance (DFPH-a.01_1G10A56K-LC with 64% breadth), suggest that mutations improving DFPH_a.01 are plentiful, an important vaccine insight.
