The invention relates to antibodies, and antigen binding fragments thereof, that potently neutralize infection of both RABV and non-RABV lyssaviruses. The invention also relates to antigenic sites to which the antibodies and antigen binding fragments bind, as well as to nucleic acids that encode and immortalized B cells and cultured plasma cells that produce such antibodies and antibody fragments. In addition, the invention relates to the use of the antibodies and antibody fragments of the invention in screening methods as well as in the diagnosis, prophylaxis and treatment of RABV infection and infection with non-RABV lyssaviruses.
