In this study, 130 we selected SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2, and HCoV-229E as models, which adopt the 131 two RBD states, and evaluated and compared immune responses to the S trimers and 132 7 RBDs of these coronaviruses through immunological and bioinformatics approaches. 133 We also investigated the mechanism through which the HCoV-229E S trimer 134 produced effective nAbs. Finally, we provide possible vaccine strategies for alphaTo address this issue, we performed B-cell epitope predictions for the S trimers 152 and RBDs of alpha-CoV (HCoV-229E) and beta-CoVs (SARS-CoV and 153 SARS-CoV-2). Taken together, these results showed that the intact and stable S1 subunit of 240 HCoV-229E is a prerequisite for the production of effective nAbs. Furthermore, our experimental results show that RBD has a higher ability to bind 242 12 to the receptor hAPN (Fig. 4B) , which indicates that the characteristics of RBD itself 243 may lead to the generation of less neutralizing antibodies. ./cache/cord-103940-a2cqw8kg.txt ./txt/cord-103940-a2cqw8kg.txt
