Abstract

Broadly neutralizing antibodies against rapidly evolving viruses (e.g., HIV-1 and influenza virus), often manifest antigen-binding promiscuity. Based on a recent study, we hypothesize on the significance of antibody polyreactivity in neutralization of rapidly evolving viruses. We propose that polyreactivity contributes to toleration of viral variants and shortens the time for generating neutralizing antibodies.
