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

“…To systematically investigate the impact of variability in Env conformation on bnAb potency we screened 126 JR-CSF point mutants for generalized neutralization sensitivity to weakly neutralizing antibodies (weak-nAbs) depending on trimer opening and plasma from people with chronic HIV-1 infection. 23 mutations resulted in a highly neutralization sensitive phenotype, which was associated with de-stabilization of the closed, prefusion conformation. …”

Research on the Prediction of the Water Demand of Construction Engineering Based on the BP Neural Network by Hao Peng, Han Wu, Junwu Wang

“…According to the results of the case study, there were four main factors that affected the construction water consumption of the Taiyangchen Project, namely, the intraday amount of pouring concrete, the intraday weather, the number of workers, and the intraday amount of wood used. The predicted data were basically consistent with the actual data, the relative error was less than 5%, and the average error was only 2.66%. …”
