Additional analyses showed that plasma Abs from RV144 vaccinees reactive in a microarray to a linear V3 peptide from CRF01_AE were also an inverse correlate of infection risk, but only in vaccine recipients who had lower levels of Env-specific plasma IgA and aggregate neutralizing Ab activity (Gottardo et al., 2013), and V3-specific Abs from RV144 vaccinees were shown to capture infectious virions, including the vaccine strain CM244 (Liu et al., 2013). This evidence concerns the gene CD79A and infection.
