LIVE-ATTENUATED SARS-COV-2 VACCINE

Engineered SARS-CoV-2 variants having a combination of attenuating modifications, and their use as live-attenuated SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, are described. The recombinant genome of the live-attenuated SARS-CoV-2 encodes a modified spike (S) protein with a deletion of the polybasic site (DPRRA); encodes a modified non-structural protein 1 (Nsp1) with K164A and H165A substitutions; and includes a mutation that prevents expression of open reading frames (ORFs) 6, 7a, 7b and 8. The disclosed live-attenuated SARS-CoV-2 retain the capacity to infect and replicate in mammalian cells. Immunogenic compositions that include a live-attenuated SARS-CoV-2 and methods of eliciting an immune response against SARS-CoV-2 in a subject are also described. Further disclosed are a collection of reverse genetics plasmids that include the complement of the recombinant genome of the live-attenuated SARS-CoV-2 and methods of producing a live-attenuated SARS-CoV-2 using the reverse genetics plasmids..
