== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The decrease of antibody efficacy to mutated SARS-CoV-2 spike RBD explains the breakthrough infections and reinfections by Omicron variants. Here, we analyzed broadly neutralizing antibodies isolated from long-term hospitalized convalescent patients of early SARS-CoV-2 strains. One of the antibodies named NCV2SG48 is highly potent to broad SARS-CoV-2 variants including Omicron BA.1, BA.2, and BA.4/5. To reveal the mode of action, we determined the sequence and crystal structure of the Fab fragment of NCV2SG48 in a complex with spike RBD from the original, Delta, and Omicron BA.1. NCV2SG48 is from a minor V(H) but the multiple somatic hypermutations contribute to a markedly extended binding interface and hydrogen bonds to interact with conserved residues at the core receptor-binding motif of RBD, which efficiently neutralizes a broad spectrum of variants. Thus, eliciting the RBD-specific B cells to the longitudinal germinal center reaction confers potent immunity to broad SARS-CoV-2 variants emerging one after another.
