Variants with the N501Y mutation extend SARS-CoV-2 host range to mice, with contact transmission

2021-03-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Receptor recognition is a major determinant of viral host range, infectivity and pathogenesis. Emergences have been associated with serendipitous events of adaptation upon encounters with novel hosts, and the high mutation rate of RNA viruses may explain their frequent host shifts. SARS-CoV-2 extensive circulation in humans results in the emergence of variants, including variants of concern (VOCs...
