Is BF.7 more infectious than other Omicron subtypes: Insights from structural and simulation studies of BF.7 spike RBD variant.

International journal of biological macromolecules - 31 May 2023

Singh Jaikee Kumar, Anand Shashi, Srivastava Sandeep Kumar

Abstract excerpt

Fear of a fresh infection wave and a global health issue in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic have been rekindled by the appearance of two new novel variants BF.7 and BA.4/5 of Omicron lineages. Predictions of increased antibody evasion capabilities and transmissibility have been recognised in addition to the existing lineages (BA.1.1, BA.2, BA.2.12.1 and BA.3) as cause for worry. In comparison to Omicron, BA.4 and...
