SARS-CoV-2 B.1.351 (beta) variant shows enhanced infectivity in K18-hACE2 transgenic mice and expanded tropism to wildtype mice compared to B.1 variant

2021-08-03

Abstract excerpt

SARS-CoV-2 variants display enhanced transmissibility and/or immune evasion and can be generated in humans or animals, like minks, thus generating new reservoirs. The continuous surveillance of animal susceptibility to new variants is necessary to predict pandemic evolution. In this study we demonstrate that, compared to the B.1 SARS-CoV-2 variant, K18-hACE2 transgenic mice challenged with the B.1.351 variant disp...
