Determinants of Spike Infectivity, Processing and Neutralization in SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Subvariants BA.1 and BA.2
2022-05-02
Abstract excerpt
The SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant rapidly outcompeted other variants and currently dominates the COVID-19 pandemic. Its enhanced transmission, immune evasion and pathogenicity is thought to be driven by numerous mutations in the Omicron Spike protein. Here, we examined the impact of amino acid changes that are characteristic for the BA.1 and/or BA.2 Omicron lineages on Spike function, processing and susceptibility to...
