Antigen presentation dynamics shape the antibody response to variants like SARS-CoV-2 Omicron after multiple vaccinations with the original strain by Yang, Leerang, Van Beek, Matthew, Wang, Zijun, Muecksch, Frauke, Canis, Marie, Hatziioannou, Theodora, Bieniasz, Paul D, Nussenzweig, Michel C, Chakraborty, Arup K

“…After the first dose, limited antigen availability in germinal centers (GCs) results in a response dominated by B cells that target immunodominant epitopes that are mutated in an Omicron-like variant. After the second dose, these memory cells expand and differentiate into plasma cells that secrete antibodies that are thus ineffective for such variants. …”
