To confirm and further delineate the multispecificity of the NP-specific T cell response detected ex vivo in COVID-19 recovered patients, we defined in nine individuals, the distinctive sections of NP targeted by T cells. This is consistent with the findings of Grifoni et al 11 : using selected peptides, they detected ORF-1 specific T preferentially in some SARS-CoV-2 unexposed donors while T cells of COVID-19 recovered donors preferentially recognized structural proteins.
