Resumen de: WO2025085665A1
A robust human cell culture model permissive to both SARS-CoV-2 variants and MERS-CoV is critical for assessment and validation of antivirals. Human alveolar A549 cells are regarded as a valuable model for respiratory virus infection. SARS-CoV-2 uses the angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor for viral entry and the transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) to prime the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. By contrast, MERS-CoV utilizes the dipeptidyl peptidase 4 receptor (DPP4) to enter the target cells. Three of which are negligibly expressed in A549. Disclosed herein is a generation of a robust human cell model that carries DPP4, ACE2, and TMPRSS2 receptor expressions. By transducing Dpp4 into A549- ACE2plusC3 cells (ACE2+/TMPRSS2+), the resulting cells expressing DPP4, ACE2 and TMPRSS2 ("ACE2plusC3D4") are highly susceptible to MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 omicron infection. This ACE2plusC3D4 cell model can be applied for evaluation of antiviral drugs and potentially developed for high-throughput screening.

The present disclosure includes a multiplexed peptide assay to generate an epitope-resolved view of antibody reactivity across all human coronaviruses (CoVs). PepSeq accurately classifies SARS-CoV-2 exposure status and reveals epitopes across the Spike and Nucleocapsid proteins. Two of these represent recurrent reactivities to conserved, functionally-important sites in the S2 subunit of Spike, regions that we show are also targeted for the endemic CoVs in pre-pandemic controls. At one of these sites, we demonstrate that the SARS-CoV-2 response strongly and recurrently cross-reacts with the endemic virus hCoV-OC43. The disclosed epitope-resolved analysis reveals new CoV targets for the development of diagnostics, vaccines and therapeutics, including a site that may have broad neutralizing potential.

The invention is based on the deletion of 21 amino acids from the C-terminal region of the S2 subunit of SARS-CoV2-S protein and transporting the Si subunit, which is fused to S2 to the cell membranes. In this way, the presentation of the antigenic S1 subunit of SARS-CoV2-S protein in large amounts and in its natural structure in the cell membrane and its use as a whole cell or cell membrane has been determined as a new vaccination protocol for the SARS-CoV-2. Designing the S2 subunit of SARS-CoV2-S protein as a carrier, fusing any bacterial, viral, and tumor proteins with antigenic properties and transporting it to the cell membrane will be a comprehensive vaccination protocol that will cover all bacteria, viruses and even tumors.

To infer transmission links using within-host variation, Applicants first developed a statistical model of minor variant frequencies, which Applicants fit to a dataset of 134,682 SARS- CoV-2 genomes from Massachusetts, USA. Applicants then combined this model with a stochastic epidemic process to develop a hierarchical Bayesian statistical model of viral outbreaks. After validating the approach on both synthetic and real outbreak datasets, Applicants applied the tool to 5,692 outbreak clusters among the 134,682 Massachusetts genomes. Applicants found that informative sub-consensus variants are relatively rare in outbreaks, but that when they do occur, they significantly help resolve transmission networks. Applicants methods and results demonstrate the utility of within-host variation for transmission inference of SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens, stressing the importance of pathogen sequencing in epidemiology and public health.
