| Description | This product is a neutralizing antibody that binds to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2. COVA1-16 is a relatively rare antibody that also cross-neutralizes SARS-CoV. COVA1-16 binds a highly conserved epitope on the SARS-CoV-2 RBD, mainly through a long CDR H3, and competes with the ACE2 receptor because of steric hindrance rather than epitope overlap. COVA1-16 binds to a flexible up conformation of the RBD on the spike and relies on antibody avidity for neutralization. |
