    SARS-CoV-2 variants exhibit mutations in the spike glycoprotein, affecting antibody recognition and vaccine-induced protection.

  • 2

    Neutralisation responses varied among cohorts of naturally infected, vaccinated, and vaccinated-infected individuals.

  • 3

    Plasma from vaccinated individuals showed higher neutralisation titres, while Delta and Omicron variants had reduced susceptibility to neutralisation.

  • 4

    Computational analyses revealed variant-associated differences in predicted antigenicity and epitope landscapes within the spike protein.

  • 5

    The study integrates experimental and computational methods to characterize variant-specific neutralisation across different immune exposure histories.
