Abstract excerpt
The high mutation rate of SARS-CoV-2 leads to the emergence of multiple variants, some of which are resistant to vaccines and drugs targeting viral elements. Targeting host dependency factors, e.g. cellular proteins required for viral replication, would help prevent the development of resistance. However, it remains unclear whether different SARS-CoV-2 variants induce conserved cellular responses and exploit the...
