A novel B.1.1.523 SARS-CoV-2 variant that combines many spike mutations linked to immune evasion with current variants of concern
2021-09-21
Abstract excerpt
In the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic several variants have emerged that are linked to increased transmissibility and immune evasion. These variants are recognized as variants of concern (VOC). In this study, we describe a B.1.1.523 variant that shares many spike mutations with current VOC. Receptor-binding domain mutations E484K and S494P were observed but also a deletion (p...
