Compared JN.1, KP.2, especially FLiRT increased resistance BA.2.86/JN.1-wave convalescent human sera. XBB.1.5 monovalent-vaccinated robustly neutralize but have reduced efficiency SLip. All resistant S309 show decreased infectivity, cell-cell fusion, spike JN.1. Modeling reveals that L455S SLip reduce ACE2, while R346T strengthens it. These three mutations, alongside D339H, key epitopes spike, likely explaining the sensitivity of these neutralization. Our findings highlight suggest future vaccine formulations should consider as an immunogen, although current monovalent could still offer adequate protection.Graphical abstract

VE was 41% (95% CI: 23–55) 18–59-year-olds 50% 44–56) 60–85-year-olds. Sequencing data suggest lower protection the BA.2.86 (including JN.1) variant from recent prior (OR = 2.8; 95% CI:1.2–6.5) and, not statistically significant, 1.5; CI:0.8–2.6).

Abstract The continuous evolution of SARS-CoV-2, particularly the emergence BA.2.86/JN.1 lineage replacing XBB lineages, necessitates re-evaluation current vaccine compositions. Here, we provide a comprehensive analysis humoral immune response to and JN.1 human exposures, emphasizing need for JN.1-lineage-based boosters. We demonstrate antigenic distinctiveness lineages in SARS-CoV-2-naive individuals but not those with prior vaccinations or infections, infection elicits superior plasma neutralization titers against its subvariants. highlight strong evasion receptor binding capability KP.3, supporting foreseeable prevalence. Extensive BCR repertoire, isolating ∼2000 RBD-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) their targeting epitopes characterized by deep mutational scanning (DMS), underscores systematic superiority JN.1-elicited memory B cells (MBCs). Notably, Class 1 IGHV3-53/3-66-derived neutralizing (NAbs) contribute majorly within wildtype (WT)-reactive NAbs JN.1. However, KP.2 KP.3 evade substantial subset them, even induced JN.1, advocating booster updates optimized enrichment. JN.1-induced Omicron-specific also high potency across all Omicron lineages. Escape hotspots these have mainly been mutated RBD, resulting higher barrier escape, considering probable recovery previously escaped NAbs. Additionally, prevalence broadly reactive IGHV3-53/3-66- encoding MBCs, competing suggests inhibitory role on de novo activation naive cells, potentially explaining heavy imprinting mRNA-vaccinated individuals. These findings delineate evolving antibody shift from importance developing lineage, especially KP.3-based boosters, enhance immunity future SARS-CoV-2 variants.
