Results:

  1. RBD can be efficiently displayed on the mi3 VLP via SpyTag/SpyCatcher
  2. RBD-SpyVLP is reactive to monoclonal antibodies isolated from recovered patients
  3. RBD-SpyVLP induces a strong ACE2-blocking and neutralising antibody response in mouse models
  4. RBD-SpyVLP is highly immunogenic and induces strong neutralising antibody response in pigs
