[ad_1] Researchers studied the effect of several SARS-CoV-2 mutations on its binding to the human angiotensin 2 converting enzyme using molecular dynamics simulations. They found that the N439K mutant binds more strongly than the original Wuhan strain, which could have implications for therapies such as monoclonal antibodies. The 2019 coronavirus …

[ad_1] Using cats as an animal model to study the transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the researchers determined that the virus has a narrow transmission bottleneck. The current 2019 coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by the agent SARS-CoV-2, is widely believed to be zoonotic in origin (meaning …

[ad_1] Researchers in Korea and the United States have identified new genetic variants that demonstrate active mutational progression of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the agent that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Two of the mutations occurred in the receptor binding domain of the viral spike protein, the …

[ad_1] With an end to the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic in sight, the potential new reservoirs of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in animal populations are closely monitored. A new study published in the journal Science in November 2020 describes the probable transmission of the virus between …

[ad_1] Scientists at Tohoku University have found that human editing enzymes are likely behind a type of mutation in the COVID-19 virus that stimulates the release of pro-inflammatory molecules called cytokines by the body’s immune cells. The discovery, published in Scientific Reports, is important for understanding how the virus is …
