Fc-binding nanodisc restores antiviral efficacy of antibodies with reduced neutralizing effects against evolving SARS-CoV-2 variants by Jaehyeon Hwang, Soyun Choi, Beom Kyu Kim, Sumin Son, Jeong Hyeon Yoon, Kyung Won Kim, Wonbeom Park, Hyunjoo Choo, Suhyun Kim, Soomin Kim, Seokhyeon Yu, Sangwon Jung, Sang Taek Jung, Min-Suk Song, Sang Jick Kim, Dae-Hyuk Kweon

“…Furthermore, the Fc-binding nanodisc significantly boosted the antiviral efficacy of the soluble angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (sACE2) Fc fusion protein, which possesses broad but modest antiviral activity. In ACE2 transgenic mice, the Fc-binding nanodisc protected better than sACE2-Fc alone with two more log reduction in lung viral titer. …”
