Viral evolution prediction identifies broadly neutralizing antibodies to existing and prospective SARS-CoV-2 variants

Abstract excerpt

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting the SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain are used to treat and prevent COVID-19. However, the rapid evolution of SARS-CoV-2 drives continuous escape from therapeutic mAbs. Therefore, the ability to identify broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) to future variants is needed. Here we use deep mutational scanning to predict viral receptor-binding domain evolution and to select...
