A Competitive Panning Method Reveals an Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Nanobody Specific for an RBD-ACE2 Binding Site

Siqi He et al.

Summary: Most neutralizing antibodies can neutralize SARS-CoV-2 by blocking the interaction between the spike glycoprotein receptor-binding domain (RBD) and ACE2. In this study, a nanobody (Nb) with high affinity for the RBD of SARS-CoV-2 was identified and shown to successfully block the RBD-ACE2 binding. The Nb was also able to neutralize the WT pseudovirus and bind to RBDs of different SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Dimerization of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein affects sensitivity of ELISA based diagnostics of COVID-19

Wajihul Hasan Khan et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the significant impact of dimerization of the nucleocapsid protein on sensitivity of COVID-19 diagnostic assays. The dimeric form shows higher recognition by specific monoclonal antibodies and exhibits greater stability and antigenicity compared to the monomeric form. Manufacturers should maintain the monomer-dimer composition for accurate and robust diagnostics.

N-terminally truncated nucleocapsid protein of SARS-CoV-2 as a better serological marker than whole nucleocapsid protein in evaluating the immunogenicity of inactivated SARS-CoV-2

Lei Yue et al.

Summary: This study compared the sensitivity of NP and Delta N-NP in detecting anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies using immunoglobulin G detection ELISAs. The results showed that Delta N-NP had greater sensitivity than NP, making it a better serological marker for evaluating the immunogenicity of inactivated SARS-CoV-2.

Structural Insight Into the SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Protein C-Terminal Domain Reveals a Novel Recognition Mechanism for Viral Transcriptional Regulatory Sequences

Mei Yang et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the nucleocapsid protein C-terminal domain (CTD) of SARS-CoV-2 may play a crucial role in viral transcriptional regulation by recognizing different patterns of viral genomic intergenic transcriptional regulatory sequences (TRSs), leading to discontinuous viral transcription.

Point-of-care COVID-19 diagnostics powered by lateral flow assay

Yaofeng Zhou et al.

Summary: The global COVID-19 pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus has posed a serious threat to human life and health since its discovery in December 2019. Lateral flow assay (LFA) has been widely accepted as a critical point-of-care diagnostic platform for the rapid diagnosis of COVID-19, although it faces challenges and requires continuous improvement to enhance its efficiency in clinical diagnostics.

Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 Nucleocapsid Protein: Expression, Purification, and Its Biochemical Characterization and Utility in Serological Assay Development to Assess Immunological Responses to SARS-CoV-2 Infection

Da Di et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated the expression and purification of two forms of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein N for the development of serological assays to detect SARS-CoV-2 infection, showcasing that the RNA-free form of N exhibits slightly higher sensitivity in specific detection. Furthermore, it was shown that N preferentially binds ssRNA in a sequence-independent manner and that both NTD and CTD of N contribute to RNA-binding activity.
