  Evaluation Summary:

  This paper is of interest within the field of virus infection and RNA methylation. The data in the manuscript provide novel information on RNA methylation during rotavirus infection but do not fully support the conclusion because of several technical issues and experimental design.

  Evaluation Summary:

  The authors used phage display deep mutational scanning of SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein to profile antibody epitopes outside of the RBD that were recognized in two cohorts of subjects, which together included mRNA vaccinated, SARS-CoV-2 infected with mild or severe COVID-19 and vaccinated with prior infection. Key findings of the study are that severe COVID-19 and vaccinated individuals had higher binding to Spike protein regions NTD, CTD, and SH-H compared to individuals with mild COVID-19, while mild COVID-19 infections had higher binding to FP than vaccinated or severe COVID-19 individuals. They also reported that vaccinated individuals with or without prior infection were not different and that covariates did not appear to impact the antibody recognition profiles. The authors identified potential escape pathways in these epitope regions, some of which differed between vaccination and infection or drifted over time. The authors acknowledge that this approach is limited to linear epitopes and does not include RBD epitopes. However, the study provides novel insight into the major epitope regions targeted by polyclonal antibodies elicited by vaccination vs. infection, as well as potential pathways for the virus to escape recognition.
