Approximately one-third of non-SARS-CoV-2-exposed subjects in the healthy donor cohort had low levels of serum IgG against the S and N proteins of SARS-CoV-2, likely reflecting cross-reactivity with seasonal HCoVs (Fig. 1A) . Since the healthy donor samples in our analysis were collected 6 to 10 years before the emergence of SARS-CoV-2, we considered the possibility that a recently circulating HCoV was responsible for the higher anti-OC43 S IgG titers in the convalescent subjects. In contrast, IgG MBCs reactive to the S proteins of the HCoVs OC43 and 229E and the control proteins H1 and TTd were detected in nearly 50% or more of non-SARS-CoV-2-exposed subjects, consistent with the higher levels of serum IgG against these antigens (Fig. 2E to H) . ./cache/cord-292883-7hvq9qaj.txt ./txt/cord-292883-7hvq9qaj.txt
