The vaccine elicitation of HIV-neutralizing antibodies with tier-2-neutralization breadth has been a challenge. Here, we report the isolation and characteristics of a CD4-binding site specific monoclonal antibody, HmAb64, from a human volunteer immunized with a polyvalent gp120 DNA prime-protein boost vaccine. HmAb64 derived from heavy chain variable germline gene IGHV1-18, light chain germline gene IGKV1-39, and had a 3rd heavy chain complementarity determining region (CDR H3) of 15 amino acids. On a cross-clade panel of 208 HIV-1 pseudo-virus strains, HmAb64 neutralized 21 (10%), including tier-2 neutralization resistant strains from clades B, BC, C, and G. The cryo-EM structure of the antigen-binding fragment of HmAb64 bound to a conformation between prefusion closed and occluded open forms of envelope trimer, using both heavy and light CDR3s to recognize the CD4-binding loop, a critical component of the CD4-binding site. A gp120 subunit-based vaccine can thus elicit an antibody capable of tier 2-HIV neutralization.
