The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor-binding domain expressed in rice callus features a homogeneous mix of complex-type glycans

The spike protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 is required for the infection of human cells. It is the main target that elicits neutralizing antibodies and also a major component of diagnostic kits. The large demand for this protein has led to the use of plants as a production platfor...

It is the main target that elicits neutralizing antibodies and also a major component of diagnostic kits. The large demand for this protein has led to the use of plants as a production platform. However, it is necessary to determine the N-glycan structures of an RBD to investigate its efficacy and functionality as a vaccine candidate or diagnostic reagent. Here, we analyzed the N-glycan profile of the RBD produced in rice callus. Of the two potential N-glycan acceptor sites, we found that one was not utilized and the other contained a mixture of complex-type N-glycans. This differs from the heterogeneous mixture of N-glycans found when an RBD is expressed in other hosts, including Nicotiana benthamiana. By comparing the glycosylation profiles of different hosts, we can select platforms that produce RBDs with the most beneficial N-glycan structures for different applications.: We acknowledge funding from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation MCIN/AEI/ 10.13039/501100011033/FEDER EU to project PID2022-1414160B-I00 and by Generalitat de Catalunya Grant 2021 SGR 01501 to the Agricultural Biotechnology and Bioeconomy Unit (ABBU).
