The coronavirus spike glycoprotein attaches to host receptors and mediates viral fusion. Using a broad screening approach, we isolated seven monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that bind all human-infecting proteins from severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) immune donors. These mAbs recognize the fusion peptide acquire affinity breadth through somatic mutations. Despite targeting conserved motif, only some show neutralizing activity in vitro against alpha- betacoronaviruses, including animal coronaviruses WIV-1 PDF-2180. Two selected also neutralize Omicron BA.1 BA.2 authentic viruses reduce burden pathology vivo. Structural functional analyses showed peptide–specific bound with different modalities cryptic epitope hidden prefusion stabilized spike, which became exposed upon binding of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE2) or ACE2-mimicking mAbs.

Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and several bat coronaviruses use dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) as an entry receptor1-4. However, the receptor for NeoCoV-the closest known MERS-CoV relative found in bats-remains unclear5. Here, using a pseudotype virus assay, we that NeoCoV its close relative, PDF-2180, can efficiently bind to specific angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) orthologues and, less favourably, human ACE2 receptors through their receptor-binding domains (RBDs) on spike (S) proteins. Cryo-electron microscopy analysis revealed RBD-ACE2 binding interface involving protein-glycan interactions, distinct from those of other ACE2-using coronaviruses. We identified residues 337-342 molecular determinant restricting entry, whereas S pseudotyped containing T510F RBD mutation entered cells expressing ACE2. Although polyclonal SARS-CoV-2 antibodies or RBD-specific nanobodies did not cross-neutralize ACE2-specific antibody two broadly neutralizing betacoronavirus inhibited these viruses. describe MERS-CoV-related viruses receptor, underscoring promiscuity potential zoonotic threat.

Immune imprinting describes how the first exposure to a virus shapes immunological outcomes of subsequent exposures antigenically related strains. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron breakthrough infections and bivalent COVID-19 vaccination primarily recall cross-reactive memory B cells induced by prior Wuhan-Hu-1 spike mRNA rather than priming Omicron-specific naive cells. These findings indicate that immune occurs after repeated exposures, but whether it can be overcome remains unclear. To understand persistence imprinting, we investigated plasma antibody responses administration updated XBB.1.5 vaccine booster. We showed booster elicited neutralizing against current variants were dominated pre-existing previously spike. Therefore, persists multiple spikes through infection, including post vaccination, which will need considered guide future vaccination.

The angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor is shared by various coronaviruses with distinct receptor-binding domain (RBD) architectures, yet our understanding of these convergent acquisition events remains elusive. Here, we report that two bat MERS-related (MERSr-CoVs) infecting Pipistrellus nathusii (P.nat)-MOW15-22 and PnNL2018B-use ACE2 as their receptor, narrow ortholog specificity. Cryoelectron microscopy structures the MOW15-22/PnNL2018B RBD-ACE2 complexes unveil an unexpected entirely binding mode, mapping >45 Å away from any other known ACE2-using coronaviruses. Functional profiling orthologs 105 mammalian species led to identification host tropism determinants, including N432-glycosylation restricting viral recognition, design a soluble P.nat mutant potent neutralizing activity. Our findings reveal usage for merbecoviruses found in European bats, underscoring extraordinary diversity recognition modes among promiscuity this receptor.
