Under the current model, the protein has at least three conformational states: pre-fusion native state, pre-hairpin intermediate state, and post-fusion hairpin state. During viral and target cell membrane fusion, the coiled coil regions (heptad repeats) assume a trimer-of-hairpins structure, positioning the fusion peptide in close proximity to the C-terminal region of the ectodomain. The formation of this structure appears to drive apposition and subsequent fusion of viral and target cell membranes.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099] Publication Abstract from PubMed Despite the continual emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants and increasing diversity within the receptor binding domain (RBD), some antibody responses that are directed to conserved regions can display cross-reactivity against variants. We previously isolated an RBD-directed monoclonal antibody (084-7D) from a Beta-infected donor that neutralized Beta and emerging Omicron variants. Here, we solved a high-resolution crystal structure of the 084-7D Fab in complex with the Beta RBD. These data revealed an epitope overlapping both the ACE2 binding site and those of other class 1 antibodies. Furthermore, the epitope includes highly conserved residues, Q409, D420, and Y489, that are present in recent Omicron variants. The N417 residue that emerged with Beta and has since persisted is tolerated within the epitope of 084-7D, explaining the preferential neutralization of contemporaneous N417-containing variants. These structural data defined the mechanism for cross-reactivity of a Beta-elicited neutralizing antibody, potentially informing the design of future broadly reactive SARS-CoV-2 therapeutics.
