SARS-CoV-2 mutations acquired during serial passage in human cell lines are consistent with several of those found in recent natural SARS-CoV-2 variants
1 Jan 2022
Abstract excerpt
Since the outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has evolved into diverse variants. Here, an early isolate of SARS-CoV-2 was serially passaged in multiple cell lines of human origin in triplicate, and selected mutations were compared to those found in natural SARS-CoV-2 variants. In the spike protein, Q493R and Q498R substitutions from...
