SARS-CoV-2 501Y.V2 escapes neutralization by South African COVID-19 donor plasma
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 501Y.V2 (B.1.351), a novel lineage of coronavirus causing COVID-19, contains substitutions in two immunodominant domains of the spike protein. Here, we show that pseudovirus expressing 501Y.V2 spike protein completely escapes three classes of therapeutically relevant antibodies. This pseudovirus also exhibits substantial to complete escape from neutralization, but not binding, by convalescent plasma. These data highlight the prospect of reinfection with antigenically distinct variants and foreshadows reduced efficacy of spike-based vaccines.

Neutralizing antibody titres against certain SARS-CoV-2 variants, such as B.1.351 (Beta) and B.1.617.2 (Delta), were lower than those against the parental strain WA1/2020.
“As previously reported for other vaccines29–33, the neutralizing antibody titres against certain SARS-CoV-2 variants, such as the B.1.351 (Beta) and B.1.617.2 (Delta) variants, were lower than those against the parental strain WA1/2020.”

The Figure 2 passage reports reduced neutralization of 501Y.V2 (Beta) relative to the original Wuhan-1 D614G lineage using convalescent plasma; the vaccine discussion also reports reduced neutralization of Beta by vaccinee sera. The paper does not address Delta, and its tested comparator is Wuhan-1 D614G, not the specified WA1/2020 strain. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThese variants are partially resistant to neutralization by monoclonal antibodies against spike, convalescent plasma, and sera from vaccinated participants.
“recent reports suggest that these variants are partially resistant to neutralization by monoclonal antibodies against spike protein, by convalescent plasma and, notably, by sera from participants who have received severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines91,94,95.”

In convalescent donors infected with prototype lineage virus, 48% of serum samples could not neutralize B.1.351, and the rest showed reduced neutralization titers by a factor of 3 to 86.
“The sensitivity of B.1.351 to neutralizing antibodies from convalescent donors infected with the prototype lineage virus, assessed with a spike-pseudovirus neutralization assay, indicated that 48% of serum samples were unable to neutralize B.1.351, with the rest showing a reduction in neutralization titers by a factor of 3 to 86.21”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
