In one aspect, provided herein are antibodies that bind to Zika virus non-structural protein 1 (NS1) and compositions comprising the same. In a specific embodiment, such antibodies or compositions thereof may be used to passively immunize a subject against Zika virus. In another embodiment, such antibodies or compositions thereof may be used to diagnose a Zika virus infection. In another aspect, provided herein are recombinant NS 1 polypeptides and compositions comprising the same that may be used to immunize a subject against Zika virus disease.

The invention relates to antibodies, and antigen binding fragments thereof, that potently neutralize infection of ZIKV. The invention also relates to antigenic sites to which the antibodies and antigen binding fragments bind, as well as to nucleic acids that encode and immortalized B cells that produce such antibodies and antibody fragments. In addition, the invention relates to the use of the antibodies and antibody fragments of the invention in screening methods as well as in the diagnosis, prophylaxis and treatment of ZIKV infection.

A flavivirus Envelope Dimer Epitope (EDE) and isolated neutralizing antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof directed against the EDE for use in vaccinating an individual against one or more flaviviruses wherein the EDE is a stabilized recombinant flavivirus are provided. The dimer is: covalently stabilized with at least one disulphide inter-chain bond or one sulfhydryl-reactive crosslinker between the two sE monomers, and/or by being formed as a single polypeptide chain, and/or by linking the two sE monomers through modified sugar, and/or non-covalently stabilized by substituting at least one amino acid residue in the amino acid sequence of at least one sE monomer with at least one bulky side chain amino acid, at the dimer interface or in domain 1 (D1)/domain 3 (D3) linker of each monomer. The dimer is a homodimer or heterodimer of native and/or mutant envelope polypeptides, from DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, DENV-4, Zika and/or other flavivirus.

The present disclosure is directed to antibodies binding to and neutralizing Zika virus and methods for use thereof.

Described herein are nucleic acids encoding single-domain antibodies that might serve as alternatives to conventional monoclonal antibodies for either the detection or treatment of Chikungunya Virus (CHIKV).

The present disclosure relates to polypeptides that specifically bind to Dengue virus non¬structural protein 1, including antibodies and fragments thereof. The antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof may specifically bind Dengue virus (DENV) serotype 4 and include: a heavy chain variable region that comprises at least one CDR amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of: SGYNWH, YIH YS GGTN YNPS LKS, RTGTVPFAY, SYVMH, YLNPYNDDTKYNEKFKG, and GPPYALDY. The present disclosure further relates to methods of producing the polypeptides of the present disclosure, methods of diagnosing DENV, and methods of treating a DENV infection.

The disclosure provides anti-DENV antibodies and methods of making and using the same. Nucleic acids encoding anti-DENV antibodies and host cells comprising the nucleic acids are also provided. The anti-DENV antibodies have uses that include treating DENV infection. The disclosure also provided polypeptides containing a variant Fc region and methods of making the same. Nucleic acids encoding polypeptides and host cells comprising the nucleic acids are also provided. The polypeptides have uses that include treating a viral infection. Also claimed is a polypeptide comprising a Fc variant comprising at least one amino acid alteration in a parent Fc region, wherein the variant Fc region has a substantially decreased FcYR-binding activity and does not have a substantially decreased C1 q-binding activity when compared to the parent Fc region.

The present disclosure provides humanized antibodies, including antibodies comprising an ultralong CDR3 and uses thereof.

The invention relates to a method for discovering specific functional antibodies, in particular to a method for discovering specific functional antibodies based on sequence composition and frequency analysis of variable regions of immune host antibodies. Compared with conventional high-throughput antibody sequencing method, this method can quickly and accurately obtain the full-length sequence of the variable region of antibody containing candidate CDR3, the success rate of antibody gene pairing is high and it is suitable for the detection of few samples, and improves the efficiency of obtaining specific functional antibodies.
