Elicited high anti-RBD (SARS-CoV-2) antibodies in mice. The produced antibodies potently neutralized SARS-CoV-2 pseudo- and live virus (with activity against SARS-CoV and SARS-related-CoVs, as well). SARS-CoV-2 RBD-specific sera from immunized mice also effectively blocked RBD-ACE binding (including RBD of various mutant versions of Spike protein) and inhibited SARS-CoV-2 infection in cell culture.
