== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/SPIKE_SARS2 SPIKE_SARS2] attaches the virion to the cell membrane by interacting with host receptor, initiating the infection (By similarity). Binding to human ACE2 receptor and internalization of the virus into the endosomes of the host cell induces conformational changes in the Spike glycoprotein (PubMed:32142651, PubMed:32075877, PubMed:32155444). Uses also human TMPRSS2 for priming in human lung cells which is an essential step for viral entry (PubMed:32142651). Proteolysis by cathepsin CTSL may unmask the fusion peptide of S2 and activate membranes fusion within endosomes.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099]<ref>PMID:32075877</ref> <ref>PMID:32142651</ref> <ref>PMID:32155444</ref>  mediates fusion of the virion and cellular membranes by acting as a class I viral fusion protein. Under the current model, the protein has at least three conformational states: pre-fusion native state, pre-hairpin intermediate state, and post-fusion hairpin state. During viral and target cell membrane fusion, the coiled coil regions (heptad repeats) assume a trimer-of-hairpins structure, positioning the fusion peptide in close proximity to the C-terminal region of the ectodomain. The formation of this structure appears to drive apposition and subsequent fusion of viral and target cell membranes.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099]  Acts as a viral fusion peptide which is unmasked following S2 cleavage occurring upon virus endocytosis.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_04099]

Current COVID-19 vaccines need to take at least one month to complete inoculation and then become effective. Around 51% of the global population is still not fully vaccinated. Instantaneous protection is an unmet need among those who are not fully vaccinated. In addition, breakthrough infections caused by SARS-CoV-2 are widely reported. All these highlight the unmet needing for short-term instantaneous prophylaxis (STIP) in the communities where SARS-CoV-2 is circulating. Previously, we reported nanobodies isolated from an alpaca immunized with the spike protein, exhibiting ultrahigh potency against SARS-CoV-2 and its variants. Herein, we found that Nb22, among our previously reported nanobodies, exhibited ultrapotent neutralization against Delta variant with an IC50 value of 0.41 ng/ml (5.13 pM). Furthermore, the crystal structural analysis revealed that the binding of Nb22 to WH01 and Delta RBDs both effectively blocked the binding of RBD to hACE2. Additionally, intranasal Nb22 exhibited protection against SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant in the post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Of note, intranasal Nb22 also demonstrated high efficacy against SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant in STIP for seven days administered by single dose and exhibited long-lasting retention in the respiratory system for at least one month administered by four doses, providing a strategy of instantaneous short-term prophylaxis against SARS-CoV-2. Thus, ultrahigh potency, long-lasting retention in the respiratory system and stability at room-temperature make the intranasal or inhaled Nb22 to be a potential therapeutic or STIP agent against SARS-CoV-2.
