Abstract excerpt
Seasonal human coronaviruses (HCoVs) continue to undergo adaptive evolution under structural and immune-mediated constraints. We investigated the molecular epidemiology and spike (S) protein structural variation of circulating coronaviruses in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, during the 2025-2026 winter season, with particular emphasis on genotype persistence and glycosylation architecture in HCoV-OC43. Among 293...
