Effects of SARS-CoV-2 mutations on protein structures and intraviral protein-protein interactions

Siqi Wu et al.

Summary: The study investigates 20 nonsynonymous mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 genome with incidence rates >= 1%, finding 4 mutations that cause significant changes in protein structures and impact intraviral protein interactions. These mutations also alter the hot spots within mutant complexes and are widely distributed globally with fluctuating occurrences. The findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 mutations could affect viral protein structure, binding affinity, and hot spots, potentially influencing transmission, diagnosis, and treatment of COVID-19.

Furin cleavage of SARS-CoV-2 Spike promotes but is not essential for infection and cell-cell fusion

Guido Papa et al.

Summary: Research suggests that furin plays a promoting role in SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and cell-cell spread, but it is not essential, indicating that furin inhibitors may reduce but not completely prevent viral spread.

Structural impact on SARS-CoV-2 spike protein by D614G substitution

Jun Zhang et al.

Summary: Substitution of aspartic acid (D) with glycine (G) at position 614 in the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 enhances viral spread. Cryo-electron microscopy structures reveal that the G614 strain has increased infectivity compared to the D614 strain. These findings provide insights for vaccine development and understanding viral entry mechanisms.
