Structural and mutational analyses define distinct molecular routes to broad SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain recognition

Morgan E. Abernathy, William B. Foreman, Jasmyn A Lopez, Viren A. Baharani, Danielle Vahdat, Yu Erica Lee, Michael R. Eso, zijun wang, Paul D. Bieniasz, Michel C. Nussenzweig, Tyler N. Starr, Christopher O. Barnes

This study identifies two antibodies that recognize conserved SARS-CoV-2 RBD epitopes, revealing structural mechanisms for broad neutralization and escape pathways.

B lymphocytes that enter the germinal center late preferentially differentiate into memory cells that recognize subdominant epitopes

Pengcheng Zhou, Harald Hartweger, Andrew J. MacLean, Víctor Ramos, Kai-Hui Yao, Brianna Hernandez, zijun wang, Anna Gazumyan, Michel C. Nussenzweig

The paper shows that late-entering B cells in germinal centers mainly become memory B cells that recognize less common antigen parts.

Memory B cell Development in Response to mRNA SARS-CoV-2 and Nanoparticle Immunization in Mice

Marie Wiatr, zijun wang, Marie Canis, Brianna Hernandez, Anna Gazumyan, Gabriela S. Silva Santos, Sadman Shawraz, Songhee lee, Paul D. Bieniasz, Théodora Hatziioannou, Frauke Muecksch, Michel C. Nussenzweig

This study compares memory B cell responses to mRNA and nanoparticle vaccines in mice, finding similar antibody sequences but better breadth from mosaic nanoparticle vaccines.
