SARS-COV-2 γ variant acquires spike P681H or P681R for improved viral fitness

2021-10-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) evolves and generates different variants through a continuously branching model. Four variants of concern have been the major pandemic drivers around the world. One important question is how they may evolve and generate subvariants, some of which may be even more virulent and drive the pandemic further. While investigating how γ (or P....
