Popis: HIV envelope is a target for vaccine development, but induction of broadly neutralizing antibodies has been difficult. Here, the authors show that electroporation with a synthetic DNA vaccine construct allows in vivo production of HIV envelope native like trimers to induce autologous tier-2 neutralizing antibodies targeting a C3/V5 epitope in mice.
