Insertions in the SARS-CoV-2 Spike N-Terminal Domain May Aid COVID-19 Transmission

2021-12-07

Abstract excerpt

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 is an ongoing pandemic that causes significant health/socioeconomic burden. Variants of concern (VOCs) have emerged which may affect transmissibility, disease severity and re-infection risk. Most studies focus on the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the Spike protein. However, some studies suggest that the Spike N-terminal domain (NTD) may have a role in fac...
