Immunoassay utilizing recombinant nucleocapsid-proteins for detection of antibodies to human coronaviruses

TL;DR: A coronavirus strain-specific line immunoassay based on recombinant nucleocapsid (N) proteins of all known pathogenic strains, which found that recently identified NL63 and HKU1 contribute significantly to the overall spectrum of coronav virus infections.

Antibody responses to individual proteins of SARS coronavirus and their neutralization activities.

TL;DR: It is suggested that anti-S and anti-N antibodies are diagnostic markers and in particular that S3 is immunogenic and therefore is a good candidate as a subunit vaccine antigen; and that, from a virus structure viewpoint, the presence in some human sera of antibodies reacting with two recombinant polypeptides, 3a and 9b, supports the hypothesis that they are synthesized during the virus cycle.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome diagnostics using a coronavirus protein microarray

TL;DR: It is shown that protein microarrays can serve as a rapid, sensitive, and simple tool for large-scale identification of viral-specific antibodies in sera and demonstrated that viral infection can be monitored for many months after infection.
