Rationally designed carbohydrate-occluded epitopes elicit HIV-1 Env-specific antibodies

Areas of HIV envelope (Env) that aren’t covered by glycans are potential targets for antibodies. Here, the authors computationally design small protein mimics of four such epitopes and show that they can induce Env binding antibodies in rabbits.
