General information

STE73-2E9 is a human antibody which binds RBD of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein at the RBD-ACE2 interface. Thereby, it neutralizes (as an IgG) SARS-CoV-2 infection in vitro. It was identified using phage display technique and originated in a SARS-CoV-2-naïve antibody library (Bertoglio et al., 2021).

The antibody (as an IgG) bound RBD in vitro with an EC50 of 0.2 nM (and 0.925 nM binding affinity for the whole SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein). It was observed to bind at the RBD-ACE2 interface. The antibody (as an IgG) neutralized SARS-CoV-2 live virus with an IC50 of 0.43 nM in vitro.
