Abstract Zika virus (ZIKV) is a global public health concern due to its ability to cause congenital Zika syndrome and lack of approved vaccine, therapeutic, or other control measures. We discovered eight novel rabbit monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) that bind to distinct ZIKV envelope protein epitopes. The majority of the MAbs were ZIKV specific and targeted the lateral ridge of the envelope (E) protein domain III, while the MAb with the highest neutralizing activity recognized a putative quaternary epitope spanning E protein domains I and III. One of the non-neutralizing MAbs specifically recognized ZIKV precursor membrane protein (prM). Somatic hypermutation of immunoglobulin variable regions increases antibody affinity maturation and triggers antibody class switching. Negative correlations were observed between the somatic hypermutation rate of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable region and antibody binding parameters such as equilibrium dissociation constant, dissociation constant, and half-maximal effective concentration value of MAb binding to ZIKV virus-like particles. Complementarity-determining regions recognize the antigen epitopes and are scaffolded by canonical framework regions. Reversion of framework region amino acids to the rabbit germ line sequence decreased anti-ZIKV MAb binding activity of some MAbs. Thus, antibody affinity maturation, including somatic hypermutation and framework region mutations, contributed to the binding and function of these anti-ZIKV MAbs. IMPORTANCE ZIKV is a global health concern against which no vaccine or therapeutics are available. We characterized eight novel rabbit monoclonal antibodies recognizing ZIKV envelope and prM proteins and studied the relationship between somatic hypermutation of complementarity-determining regions, framework regions, mutations, antibody specificity, binding, and neutralizing activity. The results contribute to understanding structural features and somatic mutation pathways by which potent Zika virus-neutralizing antibodies can evolve, including the role of antibody framework regions.

Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
