A recent study published in Medcomm by He et al. 1 introduced protein subunit vaccines with wild-type and mutant S1 subunit (S1-WT and S1-Mut) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) to evaluate their immunoprotective efficacy. The team further analyzed the neutralization activity of bivalent vaccine composed of S1-WT and S1-Mut for SARS-CoV-2 and mutant strains to explore a universal protective vaccine. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is still a lifethreatening global problem since the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. To date, SARS-CoV-2 transmission is still uncontrolled in many parts of the world. As of May 4, 2021, SARS-CoV-2 has caused more than 153 million COVID-19 patients and 3.2 million deaths as well as heavy economic burden and overburdened health systems. Comfortingly, the development of recombinant neutralization antibodies and kinds of vaccines contributes to the control of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, a growing number of SARS-CoV-2 variants with enhanced infectivity/transmissibility and increased ability to circumvent drug and immune control have been reported, which brings about new challenges to control the pandemic. 2A universal coronavirus vaccine against both SARS-CoV-2 and mutant strains has been called for based on the emerging variants because of the decreased protective role of existing vaccines against mutant strains. As reported, the Novavax NVX-CoV2373 subunit vaccine showed a reduced efficacy from 89.3% to 49.4% in clinical studies in South Africa. 3 Moreover, the protective efficacy of ChAdOx1 chimpanzee adenoviral vectored vaccine (AZD1222) declined more significantly, and the vaccine efficacy against B. 1.351 was only 10.4%. 4 To determine the cross-protection of recombinant S1-WT and S1-Mut protein vaccine against wild-type and mutant SARS-CoV-2, He et al. 1 chose S1-WT and S1-Mut including K417N, E484K, N501Y and D614G that appear in the current main SARS-CoV-2 mutant strains (B. 1.1. 7, B. 1.351, and P. 1) to formulate the recombinant protein vaccine, and they discovered that the geometric mean titers (GMT) of RBD-WT specific antibodies in serum from S1-WT immunized mice was 8.65× 106 while the GMT of RBD-Mut antibodies was 1.08× 106. Besides, the GMT of S1-Mut antibodies in serum from S1-Mut immunized mice was much higher than that of S1-WT immunized mice (1.08× 106 vs 2.7× 105), indicating that S1-WT protein stimulates stronger S1-WT and RBD-WT specific antibody responses, and S1-Mut protein could induce mutant S1 and RBD antibody responses. In addition, the neutralization antibodies induced by recombinant S1-WT or S1-Mut protein displayed strong blockade on the binding between ACE2 and RBD-WT or RBD-Mut, respectively. Moreover, the sera
