Assessing bnAb potency in the context of HIV-1 envelope conformational plasticity. by Caio Foulkes, Nikolas Friedrich, Branislav Ivan, Emanuel Stiegeler, Carsten Magnus, Daniel Schmidt, Umut Karakus, Jacqueline Weber, Huldrych F Günthard, Chloé Pasin, Peter Rusert, Alexandra Trkola

“…While loss of potency on SENSE-19 was registered for bnAbs from several classes recognizing quaternary epitopes on pre-triggered Env, structural destabilization benefitted MPER bnAbs and other inhibitors known to have post-CD4 attachment neutralization activity. Importantly, for a subset of CD4bs bnAbs, and the interface bnAb PGT151, particularly low potency variation was noted, suggesting that Env conformational tolerance can be achieved but is not the rule. …”

Roman Law on legal personality: pro et contra by Yu. M. Zhornokui

“…Attention is drawn to the fact that the current state of the development of civilist thought regarding the development of the category “legal entity” by Roman lawyers indicates the existence of three approaches: 1) Roman lawyers developed and used a legal structure that was different from the citizens of Rome and could participate in the civil turnover of that time; 2) the category of legal entity was not known to Roman lawyers, but the main features characterised to its modern understanding (legal capacity, property separation, the possibility to participate in legal proceedings, etc.) were developed precisely in Ancient Rome; 3) for the jurisprudence of the Roman period, the category “legal entity” or its individual characteristics were not known in the sense that are now attached to the content of the relevant characteristics, but the use of individual constructions, such as “universitas”, “corpus”, “collegia”, “sodalitia”, etc., was intended to show that in private relations, property can exist without being tied to a Roman citizen as a subject of rights. …”
