Covalently linked dengue virus envelope glycoprotein dimers reduce exposure of the immunodominant fusion loop epitope
The immunodominant epitope of dengue virus envelope protein (E) induces poorly neutralizing antibodies, which poses a problem for vaccine development. Here, the authors engineer covalently locked E dimers exposing an epitope that has been shown to induce potent and broadly neutralizing antibodies.
