An engineered decoy receptor for SARS-CoV-2 broadly binds protein S sequence variants


ABSTRACT: The spike S of SARS-CoV-2 recognizes ACE2 on the host cell membrane to initiate entry. Soluble decoy receptors, in which the ACE2 ectodomain is engineered to block S with high affinity, potently neutralize infection and, due to close similarity with the natural receptor, hold out the promise of being broadly active against virus variants without opportunity for escape. Here, we directly test this hypothesis. Using deep mutagenesis, we find that the ACE2-binding surface of the SARS-CoV-2 spike tolerates high mutational diversity, which may act as a source for resistance to therapeutics. However, saturation mutagenesis of the receptor-binding domain (RBD) followed by in vitro selection, with wild type ACE2 and the engineered decoy competing for binding sites, failed to find S mutants that discriminate in favor of the wild type receptor. We conclude that resistance to engineered decoys will be rare.
