Based on its highly homology to SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2 RBD is corroborated to contain immune dominant epitopes capable of eliciting antibodies that can neutralize viral infection and block viral entry by competing hACE2 Pseudovirus neutralization assay was then performed by incubation of SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus with serially diluted mice serum for 1h at 37 °C, followed by addition of the mixture into pre-seeded 293T-ACE2 cells. On day 0 (pre-immunization), day 13 and day 27, mouse sera were collected and analyzed for RBD binding, pseudovirus and live virus neutralization, and cell-cell fusion inhibition. ./cache/cord-258902-h0wrs01h.txt ./txt/cord-258902-h0wrs01h.txt
