Exposure of an occluded hemagglutinin epitope drives selection of a class of cross-protective influenza antibodies

Antibody cross-reactivity can help to prevent escape mutations from enabling viral escape, but underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here the authors identify influenza hemagglutinin epitopes that are exposed during viral replication and which result in the generation of a class of protective cross-rea...
