Increasing evidence suggests an unexpected potential for non-neutralizing antibodies to prevent HIV infection. Consequently， identification of functional linear B-cell epitopes for HIV are important for developing preventative and therapeutic strategies. We therefore explored the role of antigen-specific immune responses in controlling plasma viremia in SIV infected rhesus macaques.
