ONE SENTENCE SUMMARY Structural study of a cross-reactive SARS antibody reveals a conserved epitope on the SARS-CoV-2 receptor-binding domain. A recent study has shown that CR3022, which is a human 49 neutralizing antibody that targets the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV (4), Nonetheless, despite having a 70 high conservation in the epitope residues, CR3022 Fab binds to SARS-CoV RBD (K d = 1 71 nM) with a much higher affinity than to SARS-CoV-2 RBD (K d = 115 nM) (Table 1 Previous cryo-EM studies have also shown that the recombinant SARS-CoV S 121 protein is mostly found in the none-"up", single-"up", or double-"up" conformations (19, 122 21), but rarely in the triple-"up" conformation, even with ACE2 receptor bound (21, 22) . ./cache/cord-330473-f03ka7bd.txt ./txt/cord-330473-f03ka7bd.txt
