Fig 3. Correlation of T/F Env features with neutralization breadth.

Fig 3

T/F Env amino acid sequence features for 21 subjects were defined using the LANL N-GlycoSite and Variable Region Characteristics online tools. A) Spearman’s correlations were performed between neutralization breadth AUC and variable loop lengths, number of total, (NXS + NXT), NXS, and NXT glycan motifs (excluding X = proline) in gp120, and the ratio of NXS motifs divided by NXT motifs. Spearman’s r values and p values are shown for each comparison. P values < 0.05 are considered significant. B) Scatter plot of median 3-year breadth AUC value vs ratio of NXS:NXT sites in the transmitted/founder Env. Spearman correlation r = 0.56, p = 0.008.
