Introduction: V445E and K444 Q/R/N in the RBD and K150 T/Q/R/E, and N148S in NTD may be responsible for antibody escape.
A Combination of Receptor-Binding Domain and N-Terminal Domain Neutralizing Antibodies Limits the Generation of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Neutralization-Escape Mutants.
Discussion: In addition, mutations at N148S, K150R/E, and S151P in the NTD epitope exhibited reductions in sensitivity to three COVID-19 convalescent-phase plasma samples.
