UNRAVELLING ANTIGENIC CROSS-REACTIONS TOWARD THE WORLD OF CORONAVIRUSES: EXTENT OF THE STABILITY OF SHARED EPITOPES AND SARS-COV-2 ANTI-SPIKE CROSS-NEUTRALIZING ANTIBODIES

Unravelling Antigenic Cross-Reactions toward the World of Coronaviruses: Extent of the Stability of Shared Epitopes and SARS-CoV-2 Anti-Spike Cross-Neutralizing Antibodies

The human immune repertoire retains the molecular memory of a very great diversity of target antigens (epitopes) and can recall this upon a second encounter with epitopes against which it has previously been primed.Although genetically diverse, proteins of coronaviruses exhibit sufficient conservation to lead to antigenic cross-reactions.In this re
