Excited to share our new preprint together with @menz45, @vmcorman and many others in which we show that #SARSCoV2 Beta elicits potent lineage-specific and cross-reactive antibodies! 1/n
biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Why are we interested in Beta? RBD Beta can be considered „antigenically most distant“ from the original strain and it contains mutations reducing neutralization of many #SARSCoV2 antibodies. But how do antibodies elicited by Beta look like? 2/n
