<article-title>Mapping antibody epitopes of the avian H5N1 influenza virus</article-title>
</related-article>
<abstract abstract-type="toc">
<p>Using whole-genome-fragment phage display libraries, Hana Golding and colleagues identify the viral epitopes recognized by serum antibodies in humans who have recovered from infection with H5N1 avian influenza.</p>
</abstract>
<abstract>
<sec>
<title>Background</title>
<p>Transmission of highly pathogenic avian H5N1 viruses from poultry to humans have raised fears of an impending influenza pandemic. Concerted efforts are underway to prepare effective vaccines and therapies including polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies against H5N1. Current efforts are hampered by the paucity of information on protective immune responses against avian influenza. Characterizing the B cell responses in convalescent individuals could help in the design of future vaccines and therapeutics.</p>
</sec>
<sec>
<title>Methods and Findings</title>
<p>To address this need, we generated whole-genome–fragment phage display libraries (GFPDL) expressing fragments of 15–350 amino acids covering all the proteins of A/Vietnam/1203/2004 (H5N1). These GFPDL were used to analyze neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies and sera of five individuals who had recovered from H5N1 infection. This approach led to the mapping of two broadly neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies with conformation-dependent epitopes. In H5N1 convalescent sera, we have identified several potentially protective H5N1-specific human antibody epitopes in H5 HA[(-10)-223], neuraminidase catalytic site, and M2 ectodomain. In addition, for the first time to our knowledge in humans, we identified strong reactivity against PB1-F2, a putative virulence factor, following H5N1 infection. Importantly, novel epitopes were identified, which were recognized by H5N1-convalescent sera but did not react with sera from control individuals (H5N1 naïve, H1N1 or H3N2 seropositive).</p>
</sec>
<sec>
<title>Conclusion</title>
<p>This is the first study, to our knowledge, describing the complete antibody repertoire following H5N1 infection. Collectively, these data will contribute to rational vaccine design and new H5N1-specific serodiagnostic surveillance tools.</p>

<title>Editors' Summary</title>
<sec id="s5a">
<title></title>
<sec id="s5a1">
<title>Background</title>
<p>Every winter, millions of people catch influenza, a viral infection of the airways. Most recover quickly but seasonal influenza outbreaks (epidemics) kill about half a million people annually. These epidemics occur because small but frequent changes in the viral proteins (antigens) to which the human immune system responds mean that an immune response produced one year by infection or through vaccination provides only partial protection against influenza the next year. Influenza viruses also occasionally appear that contain major antigenic changes. Human populations have little or no immunity to such viruses (which often originate in animals or birds), so they can start deadly global epidemics (pandemics ). Worryingly, the last influenza pandemic occurred in 1968 and many experts fear that another pandemic is now overdue. The trigger for such a pandemic, they think, could be the avian (bird) H5N1 influenza virus, which first appeared in 1996 in a goose in China. The name indicates the types of two major influenza antigens present in the virus: H5N1 carries type 5 hemagglutinin and type 1 neuraminidase.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s5a2">
<title>Why Was This Study Done?</title>
<p>H5N1 has caused about 400 confirmed cases of human influenza and more than 250 deaths in the past decade but it has not started a human pandemic because it cannot pass easily between people. However, it could possibly acquire this ability at any time, so it is a priority to develop both vaccines that will provide protection against a pandemic H5N1 viral strain, as well as antibody-based antiviral therapies for people not protected by vaccination (antibodies are proteins produced by the immune system that help to fight infections; people can sometimes be protected from infection by injecting them with pre-prepared antibodies). To do this, scientists need to know how the human immune system responds to the H5N1 virus. In particular, they need to know which parts of the virus the immune system can detect and make antibodies against. In this study, therefore, the researchers characterize the specific antibody responses found in people recovering from infection with H5N1.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s5a3">
<title>What Did the Researchers Do and Find?</title>
<p>The researchers made several “genome-fragment phage display libraries”, collections of bacterial viruses (phages) engineered so that each phage makes one of many possible short pieces (polypeptides) of a nonphage protein. Such “libraries” can be used to investigate which fragments are recognized by antibodies from a given source. In this case, several libraries were made that contained fragments of the genome of the H5N1 strain responsible for an outbreak of human influenza in Vietnam in 2004–2005 (A/Vietnam/1203/2004). The researchers used these libraries to analyze the antibodies made by five Vietnamese people recovering from infection with A/Vietnam/1203/2004. H5N1 convalescent blood samples, the researchers report, contained antibodies that recognized small regions (“epitopes”) in several viral proteins, including hemagglutinin, neuraminidase, a structural protein called M2, and a viral protein called PB1-F2 that is partly responsible for the severity of H5N1 infections. Several of the novel epitopes identified were not recognized by antibodies in blood taken from people recovering from infection with other influenza viruses. The researchers also used their phage display libraries to analyze two neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies generated from patients infected with A/Vietnam/1203/2004 (neutralizing antibodies protect mice against normally lethal challenge with H5N1; monoclonal antibodies are generated in the laboratory by creating continuously growing cell lines that produce a single type of antibody). Importantly, both of the neutralizing monoclonal antibodies recognized “noncontinuous conformation-dependent epitopes”—protein sequences that are not adjacent to one another in the polypeptide sequence of the protein, but that lie close together in space because of the way the protein is folded up.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="s5a4">
<title>What Do These Findings Mean?</title>
<p>Although some aspects of the antibody repertoire produced in people exposed to the H5N1 influenza virus may have been missed in this analysis, these findings provide important and detailed new information about how the human immune system responds to infection with this virus. In particular, they show that people recovering from H5N1 infection make a diverse range of antibodies against several viral proteins for at least six months and identify specific parts of H5N1 that may be particularly good at stimulating a protective immune response. This information can now be used to help design vaccines against H5N1 and antibody-based therapies for the treatment of H5N1 infections, and to develop new tools for monitoring outbreaks of avian influenza in human populations.</p>

<title>Introduction</title>
<p>The recent spread of highly pathogenic (HP) H5N1 avian influenza viruses (AIV) among poultry and transmission of these viruses to humans raised concerns of a potential influenza pandemic. In preparation for such an event, world-wide efforts are under way to test and stockpile preventive vaccines, antiviral drugs, and passive immune therapies
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Subbarao1" ref-type="bibr">[1]</xref>
,
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Gambotto1" ref-type="bibr">[2]</xref>
.</p>
<p>Such efforts could be greatly enhanced by understanding the immune responses of individuals who survived H5N1 virus infection. Recently, human monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were generated from patients in Vietnam and Turkey who had recovered from H5N1 infections
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Simmons1" ref-type="bibr">[3]</xref>
,
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Kashyap1" ref-type="bibr">[4]</xref>
. Some of the human MAbs demonstrated cross-clade neutralization in vitro and protected mice from challenge with lethal H5N1 viruses. The potential benefit of antibody therapy was suggested during the Spanish influenza outbreak when transfusion of convalescent sera reduced mortality by >50%
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Luke1" ref-type="bibr">[5]</xref>
, and in a patient infected with an H5N1 (clade 2.3) virus in China
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Zhou1" ref-type="bibr">[6]</xref>
.</p>
<p>However, there are significant gaps in our knowledge of antibody epitopes against H5N1 viruses, especially in humans, and only a few epitopes have been identified in proteins other than the haemagglutinin (HA)
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Bui1" ref-type="bibr">[7]</xref>
. Characterizing the B cell responses in convalescent individuals could help in the design of future vaccines and therapeutics. Finally, identification of long-lasting antibodies against conserved epitopes could assist in the development of serological assays for surveillance of AIV infections.</p>
<p>To address these gaps we have constructed whole-genome–fragment phage display libraries (GFPDL) expressing all the open reading frames of H5N1 A/Vietnam/1203/2004. The H5N1 GFPDL were used to identify recognition sites of antibodies in convalescent sera obtained from five Vietnamese individuals with a history of H5N1 infection and two H5-specific neutralizing MAbs derived from two of these survivors.</p>

<title>Plasma Samples and MAbs</title>
<p>Serum samples from five patients who survived H5N1 infection in Vietnam were obtained at one time point within 2–6 mo following H5N1 infection in 2004 and were previously described (Viet-1, 24-year-old male; Viet-2, 8-year-old female; Viet-3 25-year-old female; Viet-4, 26-year-old female; Viet-5, 23-year-old male)
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-deJong1" ref-type="bibr">[8]</xref>
. MAbs FLA5.10, and FLD21.140 were derived from two of these donors and were previously described
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Simmons1" ref-type="bibr">[3]</xref>
. Plasma samples from 20 Vietnamese adults (all females, aged 20–39 y) and resident in Vietnam but with no history of H5N1 exposure were used as controls in antibody binding experiments. In microneutralization assays using A/Wisconsin/67/05 (H3N2), A/New York/55/04 (H3N2), A/New Caledonia/22/99 (H1N1), and A/Solomon Islands/03/06 (H1N1), 75% of these plasma had neutralizing antibodies against either H3N2 strains, H1N1 strains, or both, with titers ranging between 1∶40 to 1∶1,280. Ten plasma samples from US residents with culture confirmed human seasonal influenza infections who had high HI titers against both H1N1 and H3N2 strains circulation during the 2004–2007 seasons were used as additional controls (no possible H5N1 exposure). All samples were de-identified. All protocols were evaluated by the CBER/NIH Research Involving Human Subjects Committee and were conducted under RIHSC exemption number 03-118B.</p>

<title>Construction of H5N1 Gene-Fragmented Phage Display Libraries</title>
<p>cDNA corresponding to all eight gene segments of the A/H5N1/Vietnam/1203/2004 were generated from RNA isolated from egg-grown virus strain, and were used for cloning. fSK-9-3 is a gIIIp display-based phage vector where the desired polypeptide can be expressed as gIIIp fusion protein.</p>
<p>Phage display libraries were constructed individually for HA and neuraminidase (NA) genes (referred to as HA-NA) and the rest of the six gene segments (PB2, PB1, PA, NP, M, and NS), referred to as FLU-6. Purified DNA containing equimolar ratio of HA and NA (HA-NA) or of the six genes (FLU-6) were digested with DNase shotgun cleavage kit (Novagen) per manufacturer's instructions, to obtain DNA fragments in the size range of 50–200 and 200–1,000 bp for each of the two gene segment pools. Detailed methodology for library construction was described previously

<p>Epitope mapping was addressed following the construction of GFPDL, spanning the genome of A/Vietnam/1203/2004 (H5N1) (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pmed.1000049.s001">Figure S1</xref>
). The insert sizes in the separately constructed HA+NA and FLU-6 libraries ranged between 50–200 bp and 200–1,000 bp to allow presentation of conformation-dependent epitopes. The four influenza GFPDL consisted of 9.6×10

to 2.6×10
<sup>7</sup>
phages (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pmed.1000049.s002">Figure S2A</xref>
). PCR analysis of 192 transformants per library confirmed that the size and distribution of inserts was random across all eight genes (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pmed.1000049.s002">Figure S2B</xref>
).</p>
<p>Using MAb FLA5.10 for panning of the H5N1 HA+NA libraries, multiple phages expressing an HA segment corresponding to amino acids (aa) [(-10)-223] were selected that included part of the receptor binding site (RBS) preceded by an N-terminal sequence (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g001">Figure 1B</xref>
). This HA segment contains 13 aa differences between A/Vietnam/1203/2004 and A/Indonesia/5/05 viruses, any of which could contribute to the clade-restricted binding of this MAb. To delineate the specific contact residues of FLA5.10, we used a random peptide phage display library (RPL), as previously used to map conformation-dependent MAbs
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Khurana2" ref-type="bibr">[14]</xref>
. Most of the selected phages displayed a peptide with the consensus sequence [(H/Q)-I-(T/I)-P-X-X-X-E-(A/V)-T-L, where “X” is any amino acid]. This epitope sequence mimics a nonlinear sequence present in the RBS, which aligns with 115-QIIP-118 and 126-EASL-129 (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g001">Figure 1B</xref>
, circled in red). Comparison of this portion of the HA sequence of A/Vietnam/1203/2004 and A/Indonesia/5/05 shows only one amino acid difference (L
<sub>129</sub>
S). Direct binding of FLA5.10 to a chemically synthesized peptide (5.10-101) and a mutated version of the peptide (5.10-101-L/A) confirmed that L129 is a critical contact residue (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pmed.1000049.s003">Figure S3</xref>
). Importantly, these aa clusters aligned closely on the outer face of the HA globular head on the 3-D structure of HA and are not expected to be masked by glycosylated residues (shown in blue) (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g001">Figure 1C</xref>
).</p>
<p>GFPDL panning with MAb FLD21.40 identified a large segment (HA 32–320) including the entire RBS. Subsequent panning with RPL narrowed the putative epitope to two aa clusters, 121-SWS-123 and 164-YNNT-167, which were separated by 40 aa in the linear sequence (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g001">Figure 1D</xref>
, circled in red), but were closely located on the 3-D structure of HA monomer (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g001">Figure 1E</xref>
). Importantly, the sequences identified are highly conserved among clade 1 and clade 2 H5N1 viruses (including clades 2.1, 2.2, 2.3.1, 2.3.2, 2.3.3, 2.3.4, 2.4, and 2.5) as well as clades 5, 6, and 8. This conservation may explain the broader cross-neutralization in vitro and cross-protection in vivo conferred by FLD21.140 (

<p>To confirm that the HA segments identified using influenza GFPDL can be recognized by neutralizing human MAbs independent of phage presentation, the H5 HA [(-10)-223] peptide was expressed and purified from

This protein fragment captured on a biosensor chip was used to determine the binding kinetics of FLA5.10 (

). Surprisingly, FLD21.140 bound to this HA segment with 50-fold higher affinity than FLA5.10 (K
<sub>d</sub>
of 0.68 nM versus 34 nM, respectively). Such a difference in binding affinities may predict higher avidity of binding to virus in vivo for FLD21.140, and could contribute to its ability to protect mice against clade 2 viruses. Therefore, both specificity and avidity could be factors in heterologous protection.</p>

<title>Antibody Epitopes in the HA and NA Recognized by Sera from Survivors of H5N1 Infection</title>
<p>The successful use of the GFPDL/RPL in elucidating the conformation-dependent epitopes of two human MAbs provided proof of concept for this approach. Next, it was important to establish if such antibodies are represented in the polyclonal sera of individuals who had recovered from H5N1 virus infection, and to identify other antibody specificities that may have contributed to virus clearance.</p>
<p>Convalescent sera from five H5N1 patients, obtained between 54 and 182 d following hospital admission, were analyzed using the A/Vietnam/1203/2004 GFPDL. We first demonstrated the capacity of the GFPDL to adsorb, at a minimum, 85% of HA-specific antibodies in the pooled convalescent sera, as determined by binding to recombinant H5 HA (A/Vietnam/1203/2004, Protein Sciences) in ELISA (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pmed.1000049.s004">Figure S4</xref>

<p>Using the HA+NA GFPDL, the pooled convalescent sera recognized a large number of clones in the HA1, HA2, and NA proteins (

and used in ELISA with individual convalescent sera (Viet 1-5,
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g003">Figure 3B</xref>
). All five individual sera reacted with the panel of peptides from HA1, HA2, and NA proteins. The strongest reactivity was observed for the large HA1 peptides 1 and 2 encompassing the RBS, which were also recognized by the human MAbs (unpublished data), and against the shorter peptides 7 and 8 in the C terminus of HA1. Phage clones expressing HA2 sequences were isolated at high frequency (

<title>HA [(-10)-223] Can Adsorb Virus-Neutralizing Activity in Polyclonal Sera</title>
<p>To evaluate the functional significance of the main HA epitopes identified using GFPDL, we evaluated the ability of the HA peptide [(-10)-223] (that bound strongly to the H5N1-neutralizing MAbs, FLA5.10 and FLD21.140) to block viral neutralization using hyperimmune sheep sera raised against the reassortant A/Vietnam/1203/04 × PR8 virus that had a titer of 1∶640 in a microneutralization assay using the rgA/Vietnam/1203/2004 virus (
<xref ref-type="table" rid="pmed-1000049-t001">Table 1</xref>
). After incubation with HA [(-10)-223], the unbound antibody fraction lost neutralizing activity (titer <1∶40), while the antibodies eluted from the resin-bound HA protein retained neutralizing activity (

did not adsorb any neutralizing activity. Additionally, none of the shorter peptides within the HA [(-10)-223], alone or in combination, adsorbed any neutralizing activity. Similar results were obtained with sera from ferrets infected with wild-type A/Vietnam/1203/2004 (H5N1) virus (obtained from Ruben Donis, CDC) (

These results demonstrate for the first time that an HA-1 peptide, expressed in bacteria, can adsorb the majority of anti-H5N1 neutralizing antibodies generated in two animal species, suggesting that although most neutralizing epitopes are conformation dependent, proper folding and presentation of such epitopes is not necessarily dependent on post-translational modifications restricted to eukaryotic cells.</p>

. In the current study, we used H5N1 GFPDL to identify recognition sites of antibodies in convalescent sera obtained from five Vietnamese individuals with a history of H5N1 infection and two H5-specific neutralizing MAbs derived from two of these survivors. The study identified antibodies targeting the HA, NA, and the M2e among other proteins. Furthermore we provide evidence that the PB1-F2, a putative viral virulence factor, was recognized by antibodies in all five convalescent sera of H5N1-infected individuals (mean end-point titers of ≥1∶500).</p>

<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Bui1" ref-type="bibr">[7]</xref>
.</p>
<p>Elucidating the repertoire of influenza-specific human antibodies against all the viral proteins is desired for understanding virus-host interactions and identifying new targets for protection. To that end, we used influenza GFPDL to unravel the antibody specificities of five H5N1-recovered individuals and to map the epitopes of two neutralizing MAbs derived from their memory B cells. Our main findings were: (1) H5N1 convalescent sera contained highly diverse antibody specificities against HA1, HA2, NA, and internal proteins of the virus for at least 6 mo; (2) two human MAbs, which were protective in mice, recognized conformation-dependent nonlinear epitopes in large HA1 fragments that encompass the RBS; (3) the HA1[(-10)-223)] protein showed high avidity binding to the two human MAbs and adsorbed a significant proportion of the neutralizing activity of polyclonal anti-H5N1 sheep and ferret sera; (4) strong antibody reactivity against the NA catalytic site and M2e were identified; (5) convalescent sera bound PB1-F2 peptides providing evidence that this protein is expressed during acute H5N1 infection; (6) sera from 20 Vietnamese adults with no history of H5N1 infection, and from ten US human influenza-confirmed infections, revealed very low reactivity to most of the H5N1 epitopes.</p>
<p>Deciphering the epitopes of the H5-specific human MAbs explained the restricted neutralization pattern of FLA5.10 compared with FLD21.140. MAb FLA5.10 binding requires L129, a critical amino acid within the RBS. A L
<sub>129</sub>
S change was reported in clade 2 H5N1 viruses from China and Southeast Asia in 2002–2005
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Smith2" ref-type="bibr">[26]</xref>
, and could explain the clade 1-restricted protection provided by FLA5.10. Preliminary data from escape mutants (ALS and KS) support the FLA5.10 epitope identified by phage display libraries (unpublished data). On the other hand, the predicted contact residues for FLD21.140 are highly conserved among clade 1 and clade 2 H5N1 viruses and the high binding affinity of this MAb for the HA [(-10)-223)] fragment may explain its broad cross-protection in vivo. Importantly, for both MAbs the combined GFPDL/RPL approach identified noncontinuous conformation dependent epitopes.</p>
<p>Panning of GFPDL (HA+NA) with sera from individuals who had recovered from H5N1 virus infection revealed broad antibody reactivity against both HA1 and HA2 domains, including the large HA1 fragments bound by the protective human MAbs. Epitope profiling of HA led to identification of six antigenic clusters (I–VI). HA antigenic sites “a–e” were defined primarily using mouse monoclonal antibodies that are encompassed in clusters-I and -II, described in this study.</p>
<p>A recent paper by Throsby et al., describes heterosubtypic neutralizing MAbs that cross react against H5N1 and H1N1
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Throsby1" ref-type="bibr">[27]</xref>
. The epitopes of these monoclonal antibodies were mapped to amino acids 43–58 in HA2. This sequence corresponds to H5-HA-2723-2378 in our study, and was part of several peptide sequences displayed on the affinity selected phage clones (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g003">Figure 3B</xref>
, peptides 10–12;
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pmed.1000049.s005">Table S1</xref>
). While all five H5N1 recovered individuals had titers against these HA2 peptides (reciprocal titers 500–2,500), binding of control plasma (from Vietnam or the US) to these peptides was observed at low frequency, and the titers did not exceed 1∶100 (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g003">Figure 3B</xref>
;
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pmed.1000049.s006">Table S2</xref>
).</p>
<p>Among the H5N1 convalescent plasma, most ELISA reciprocal titers were lower in the 6-mo postinfection sample. However, HA2 peptide (H5-HA-2838-2866) located in the membrane proximal domain was strongly recognized by all convalescent sera (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pmed-1000049-g003">Figure 3B</xref>
), but did not bind control sera from Vietnam or from US individuals with recent culture-confirmed seasonal influenza infections. This highly conserved HA2 region contains aa changes between H5, H1, and H3 viruses
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Vareckova1" ref-type="bibr">[28]</xref>
and could be useful for surveillance of H5N1 infections in endemic areas.</p>
<p>This study also identified a strong binding by the H5N1 convalescent sera to a 178-aa fragment containing the NA catalytic site that has not been reported previously. This NA segment was not recognized by US control sera with high HI titers against H1N1. Therefore, we did not find evidence that repeated exposure to human H1N1 influenza viruses elicits high-titer antibodies against the heterologous avian N1 NA, as was previously predicted
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Sandbulte1" ref-type="bibr">[29]</xref>

<p>Studies in mice have shown that serum anti-M2e antibodies can reduce virus replication and death. Currently, M2 is being evaluated as a component of several “universal vaccines”

,
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Fu1" ref-type="bibr">[34]</xref>
. However, the immunogenicity of M2e during natural influenza infections is still debated
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Black1" ref-type="bibr">[35]</xref>
. Surprisingly, the GFPDL analyses revealed high titer anti-M2e antibodies in post-H5N1 infection sera (but not in control sera). Although the N-terminal (1–9 aa) sequence of M2e is highly conserved across different influenza-A subtypes, there is significant diversity in the C-terminal (10–21 aa) sequence of M2e (
<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.flu.lanl.gov">http://www.flu.lanl.gov</ext-link>
). Also, similar GFPDL analyses using the pooled sera from 20 control H5N1-uninfected Vietnamese females did not select any phage-displaying peptide sequence from the M2 region. This result suggests that strong antibody response is generated against M2e following primary infection with HP H5N1 strain. Thus, the contribution of M2e antibodies to viral clearance after H5N1 infection should be further evaluated.</p>
<p>PB1-F2, a recently discovered proapoptotic influenza-A viral protein, contributes to viral pathogenesis in mice
<xref rid="pmed.1000049-Zamarin1" ref-type="bibr">[36]</xref>
. However, this protein is not incorporated into viral particles, and evidence for its expression during influenza infection of animals or humans is lacking. In our study, 35 PB1-F2–expressing GFPDL clones were isolated, and sera from all five H5N1 infection survivors, but not control sera, reacted with synthetic PB1-F2 peptides in ELISA. To our knowledge, this is the first report indicating that PB1-F2 is expressed during H5N1 virus infection in humans. It is not clear how this short-lived protein activates B cells. However, high viral replication and cell lysis during H5N1 infection could present the newly expressed viral proteins to the immune system.</p>
<p>The use of GFPDL to decipher the complete B cell repertoires in AIV-exposed individuals is limited by the fact that all protein segments are expressed in a bacterial system. Therefore, epitopes that are strictly dependent on post-translational modifications or on the multimeric forms of influenza proteins in the native structure might have been missed in our analyses. In spite of these limitations, the use of GFPDL led to new insights into the repertoire of anti-influenza antibodies following H5N1 virus infection and of epitopes that may contribute to resolution of avian influenza infections and could be incorporated into future vaccines. Finally, conserved epitopes recognized by sera from convalescent individuals may be useful for monitoring outbreaks of avian influenza.</p>

<p>Frequency of selected phage clones using H5N1 GFPDL after panning with sera from five H5N1-Vietnam infection survivors. Three rounds of affinity selection were performed on pooled sera using each of the four GFPDL under both conditions (antibody coated beads and in-solution). 48 clones were sequenced in each panning round, resulting in sequencing of 2,304 total clones. The peptide sequences displayed on the phage surface and the corresponding frequencies for these phage displayed sequences are shown. Each peptide name indicates the H5N1 protein name and the amino acid numbers corresponding to the complete proteome sequence shown in
