• NIH45-177: The rate of maturation and extent of diversity for the VRC01 lineage were characterized through longitudinal sampling of peripheral B cell transcripts from donor 45 over 15 years and co-crystal structures. VRC01-lineage clades underwent continuous evolution, with rates of ˜2 substitutions per 100 nucleotides per year, comparable with HIV-1 evolution. 39 VRC01-lineage Abs segregated into three major clades, and all Abs from donor 45 contained a cysteine at position 98 (99 in some sequences due to a 1-aa insertion) which was used as a signature to assess membership in the VRC01 lineage. Of 1,041 curated NGS sequences assigned to the VRC01 lineage, six did not contain the cysteine while 1,035 did (99.4%). For this Ab CDR H3 length is 12 and VH changes 35%, Vk nucleotide change is 18%. Wu2015 (antibody lineage)
