Abstract
Atanackovic and coauthors screen COVID-19 patients for antibodies against 9 different SARS-CoV-2 proteins observing responses against the spike (S) proteins, the receptor-binding domain (RBD), and the nucleocapsid (N) protein which were of the IgG1 and IgG3 subtypes. They also characterised immune responses in these patients and their findings will help to identify the most relevant component of the anti-SARS-CoV-2 humoral immune response as well as assist the design of immunomonitoring methods for anti-COVID-19 vaccines.
