Insights on SARS-CoV-2’s Mutations for Evading Human Antibodies: Sacrifice and Survival

2021-02-07

Abstract excerpt

Recent mutations on the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2’s spike protein have been manifested as the major cause of the wide and rapid spread of the virus. Especially, the variant B.1.351 in South Africa with the hallmark of triple mutations (N501Y, K417N and E484K) is worrisome. Quickly after the outbreak of this new variant, several studies showed that both N501Y and E484K can enhance the binding...
