An engineered decoy receptor for SARS-CoV-2 broadly binds protein S sequence variants

ABSTRACT: The spike S of SARS-CoV-2 recognizes ACE2 on the host cell membrane to initiate entry. Soluble decoy receptors, in which the ACE2 ectodomain is engineered to block S with high affinity, potently neutralize infection and, due to close similarity with the natural receptor, hold out the promise of being broadly active against virus variants without opportunity for escape. Here, we directly test this hypothesis. Using deep mutagenesis, we find that the ACE2-binding surface of the SARS-CoV-2 spike tolerates high mutational diversity, which may act as a source for resistance to therapeutics. However, saturation mutagenesis of the receptor-binding domain (RBD) followed by in vitro selection, with wild type ACE2 and the engineered decoy competing for binding sites, failed to find S mutants that discriminate in favor of the wild type receptor. We conclude that resistance to engineered decoys will be rare.

The sequence of human ACE2 is suboptimal for binding the S spike protein of SARS coronavirus 2

Project description:The rapid and escalating spread of SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) poses an immediate public health emergency, and no approved therapeutics or vaccines are currently available. The viral spike protein S binds membrane-tethered ACE2 on host cells in the lungs to initiate molecular events that ultimately release the viral genome intracellularly. The extracellular protease domain of ACE2 inhibits cell entry of both SARS and SARS-2 coronaviruses by acting as a soluble decoy for receptor binding sites on S, and is a promising candidate for therapeutic and prophylactic development. Using deep mutagenesis, variants of ACE2 are identified with increased binding to the receptor binding domain of S at a cell surface. Mutations are found across the protein-protein interface and also at buried sites where they are predicted to enhance folding and presentation of the interaction epitope. The mutational landscape offers a preliminary blueprint for engineering high affinity ACE2 receptors to meet this unprecedented challenge.

Structural dynamics in the evolution of SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein: HDX-MS analysis of the spike of the original Wuhan isolate, G614 spike mutant, and the isolated ancestral RBD - in apo state and in complex with the ACE2 receptor

Project description:The spike glycoprotein of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) mediates binding to the ACE2 receptor and subsequent membrane fusion. It exists in a range of conformations, including a closed state unable to bind the ACE2 receptor, and an open state that does so but displays more exposed antigenic surface. Spikes of variants of concern (VOCs) acquired amino acid changes linked to different opening probabilities, increased SARS-CoV-2 virulence and immune evasion. Here, using hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS), we analyzed the spike of the original Wuhan isolate, G614 mutant, spike of alpha, beta, delta and omicron VOCs and the isolated ancestral receptor binding domain (RBD) - in apo state and in complex with the ACE2 receptor. We identified changes in spike dynamics that we associated with the transition from closed to open conformation, to ACE2 binding, and to specific mutations in VOCs. We show that the RBD-associated subdomain plays a role in spike opening, whereas the NTD acts as a hotspot of conformational divergence of VOC spikes driving immune evasion. Alpha, beta and delta spikes assume predominantly open conformations and a strong ACE2 binding increases the dynamics of their core helices, priming spikes for fusion. Conversely, substitutions in omicron spike lead to predominantly binding-incompetent closed conformations, presumably enabling it to escape antibodies. At the same time, its core helices show characteristics of being pre-primed for fusion even in the absence of ACE2. These data inform on SARS-CoV-2 evolution and omicron variant emergence.

Revealing the effect of SARS-CoV-2 spike stabilisation on receptor binding dynamics with single molecule mass photometry

Project description:Here we show using mass photometry how proline substitutions, commonly used for SARS-CoV-2 spike stabilisation and vaccine design, directly impedes ACE2 receptor interactions via dynamics of open and closed states. Conformational changes and ACE2 binding were influenced by spike variant and temperature, but independent of site-specific N-glycosylation.

Halofuginone is a potent inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Replication [Exp3]

Project description:Here we identify halofuginone, a Prolyl-tRNA Synthetase (PRS) inhibitors as a potent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 cellular entry and viral replication. To infect the host cell, the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein interacts with cell surface heparan sulfate (HS) and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) through its Receptor Binding Domain. Removal of cell surface HS or blockade of HS biosynthesis represents a promising clinical target for treatment of SARS-CoV-2. In vitro studies confirm that halofuginone and PRS inhibitors prevent HS biosynthesis and thereby HS cell surface presentation and Spike protein binding. Halofuginone also suppresses authentic SARS-CoV-2 infection by inhibiting PRS activity, which decreases the translation efficiency of proline-rich HS biosynthetic enzymes and essential SARS-CoV-2 proteins after infection. Thus, halofuginone inhibits SARS-CoV-2 at both attachment and post-entry steps and blocks SARS-CoV-2 infection of human lung airway epithelial cells at low nanomolar concentrations. These findings support the use of halofuginone, an orally bioavailable anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory compound with encouraging clinical phase 1 safety data, as an antiviral drug to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection.

B cell epitope mapping of SARS-CoV-2 spike vaccinated rabbits

Project description:This experiment aims to profile polyclonal antibody binding profiles in serum from vaccinated animals relative to antibody function in a virus neutralization assay. Rabbits received three vaccinations with a DNA vaccine encoding the spike protein of the SARS-CoV-2 index strain. Serum samples were selected based on a three-tier (low, intermediate, and high) capacity to cross-neutralize SARS-CoV-2 strains with known neutralization resistance. Following normalization of total anti-spike IgG levels, serum of each animal (n=3) were evaluated for antibody binding to 10mer cyclic constrained peptides spanning the entire spike protein and regions with known SARS-CoV-2 variant of concern spike mutations.

Binding of a bovine ultralong CDRH3 to the SARS-CoV RBD

Project description:Here, we have used a SARS-naïve, bovine ultralong CDRH3 library to isolate a bovine paratope that engages the SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain (RBD). This scFv (B9-scFv) neutralises viruses pseudo-typed with SARS-CoV Spike protein. Using differential hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry and site-directed mutagenesis, we demonstrate that this CDRH3 recognises a conserved, cryptic epitope.
