Extended Data Fig. 5

a, Surface representation of SARS-CoV-2 spike showing the NTD in orange, RBD in green, and S2 portion of the molecule in blue, with N- and C-termini annotated. Substitutions seen in the B.1.1.248 Brazilian variant (L18F, T20N, P26S, D138Y, R190S, K417T, E484K, N501Y, D614G, H655Y, T1027I, and V1176F) are shaded red. Red hexagon depicts approximate location of R190S, which is obscured in this view. Red star indicates approximate location of T1027I, which is obscured in this view. V1176F is not shown, as it exists beyond the C-terminus of this model, which ends at residue D1146. Inset shows top-down view of the RBD with B.1.1.248 RBD substitutions (K417T/E484K/N501Y) shaded red and contextualized with the receptor binding motif. Spike was modelled using PDB: 7C2L; RBD was modelled using PDB: 6W41. All structural analyses and figures were generated with UCSF ChimeraX47. b, Selected anti-SARS-CoV-2 human mAbs (selected ones used are indicated) were tested for neutralization of the indicated Wash BR-B.1.1.248 using a FRNT on Vero-hACE2-TMPRSS2 cells (top) or on Vero -TMPRSS2 cells (bottom). One representative experiment of two performed in duplicate is shown. c, Summary of EC50 values (ng/ml) of neutralization of Wash BR-B.1.1.248 performed in Vero-hACE2-TMPRSS2 cells (top) or on Vero-TMPRSS2 cells (bottom). Data are an average of two experiments, each performed in duplicate. Blue shading of cells shows virtually complete loss of neutralizing activity: EC50 > 10,000 ng/mL.
