Distinct Core Glycan and O-Glycoform Utilization of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Variant Spike Protein RBD Revealed by Top-Down Mass Spectrometry


ABSTRACT: The SARS-CoV-2 Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant possesses numerous spike (S) mutations particularly in the S receptor-binding domain (S-RBD) that significantly improve transmissibility and evasion of neutralizing antibodies. But exactly how the mutations in the Omicron variant enhance viral escape from immunological protection remains to be understood. The S-RBD remains the principal target for neutralizing antibodies and therapeutics, thus new structural insights into the Omicron S-RBD and characterization of the post-translational glycosylation changes can inform rational design of vaccines and therapeutics. Here we report the molecular variations and O-glycoform changes of the Omicron S-RBD variant as compared to wild-type (WA1/2020) and Delta (B.1.617.2) variants using high-resolution top-down mass spectrometry (MS). A novel O-glycosite (Thr376) unique to the Omicron variant is identified. Moreover, we have directly quantified the Core 1 and Core 2 O-glycan structures and characterized the O-glycoform structural heterogeneity of the three variants. Our findings reveal high resolution detail of Omicron O-glycoforms and their utilization to provide direct molecular evidence of proteoform alterations in the Omicron variant which could shed light on how this variant escapes immunological protection.
