  • STEREOTYPIC NEUTRALIZING VH CLONOTYPES AGAINST SARS-COV-2 RBD IN COVID-19 PATIENTS AND THE HEALTHY POPULATION
    Publication number: 20210395346
    Abstract: Described are stereotypic-naïve SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies that inhibit that SARS-CoV-2 virus replication. The antibodies comprise variable heavy chain (VH) clonotypes, encoded by either immunoglobulin heavy variable (IGHV)3-53 or IGHV3-66 and immunoglobulin heavy joining (IGHJ)6, and were identified in IgM, IgG3, IgG1, IgA1, IgG2, and IgA2 subtypes, with minimal somatic mutations, and could be paired with diverse light chains, resulting in binding to the SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain (RBD). One of these clonotypes potently inhibited viral replication.
