Intrinsic furin-mediated cleavability of the spike S1/S2 site from SARS-CoV-2 variant B.1.1.529 (Omicron)

2022-04-22

Abstract excerpt

The ability of SARS-CoV-2 to be primed for viral entry by the host cell protease furin has become one of the most investigated of the numerous transmission and pathogenicity features of the virus. SARS-CoV-2 The variant B.1.1.529 (Omicron) emerged in late 2020 and has continued to evolve and is now present in several distinct sub-variants. Here, we analyzed the “furin cleavage site” of the spike protein of SARS-Co...
