2019-nCoV RBD binds with SARS-CoV-specific human monoclonal antibody (CR3022) with a KD of 6.3nM.
(1) More research is needed to determine the high-resolution structure of the 2019-nCoV RBD and why it could not be detected by these antibodies.
(2) Some of the most potent SARS-CoV-specific neutralising antibodies (e.g., m396, CR3014) targeting the SARS-CoV receptor binding site failed to bind 2019-nCoV spike protein, indicating that new monoclonal antibodies that bind specifically to 2019-nCoV RBD are required.

IgA monoclonal antibody, MAb362, competitively blocks SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins and ACE2 receptor binding. The binding affinity of IgA and IgG with RBD of SARS-CoV-2 is 0.3nM and 13nM, respectively.
The study of interaction of MAb362 with other receptor blocking and neutralising antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 will help in the development of vaccines and prophylactic/therapeutic antibodies to combat future outbreaks caused by this virus family.

Structural characterization of SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein (RBD to S2 double mutant (rS2d)) constructs.
And determing its binding with the antibody CR3022 and human cell receptor ACE2.
The spike glycoprotein mutant constructs (rS2d) with double mutation S383C, D985C were developed. The RBD in the rS2d construct is locked in the 'down ' state conformation.

Crystal structure of the SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain in complex with CR3022 Fab
The spike protein is an attractive candidate for both vaccine development and immunotherapy. As monoclonal antibodies are recognised as potential antivirals,the results in this study suggest that CR3022 could be of immediate utility because the mechanism of neutralization will be unusually resistant to virus escape.

SARS-CoV-2 is neutralized by the binding of CR3022. CR3022 epitope on binding results in fusion-incompetent post-fusion state of the S-protein.
CR3022 epitope can be used as a major target for therapeutic antibodies.

CR3022 interacts with a conserved epitope away from the receptor binding site when any two RBDs on the trimeric S-protein are in the "up" conformation and slightly rotated. This results in cross reactive binding between SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV.
SARS-CoV-2 has a conserved, epitope shared between SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV. The availability of conserved epitopes would allow structure-based design of a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine and also of cross-protective antibody responses against future coronavirus epidemics and pandemics.
