Fig. 5. Epitopes and binding modes of R1-32, R1-32-related and class 2 VH1-69 antibodies.

Fig. 5

ac, R1-32 (a), FC08 (b) and 52 (c) are antibodies of the newly defined R1-32-represented class. dk, Reported class 2 VH1-69 antibodies. Except for k (C548), all shown VH1-69 antibodies interact with L452, F490 and L492 (the R1-32 HCDR2 epitope) using the hydrophobic HCDR2. Fab-VH, Fab-VL and RBD are coloured in magenta, purple and cyan, respectively. The green circles show the position of ACE2 when bound to RBD; the blue circles show the position of NTD in relation to an RBD in a ‘down’ position as illustrated in l. Epitopes of HCDR2 and hydrophobic residues involved in antibody-antigen interaction are shown in dashed boxes.
