The Omicron variant is highly resistant against antibody-mediated neutralization: Implications for control of the COVID-19 pandemic

Markus Hoffmann et al.

Summary: The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 is spreading rapidly and shows resistance to most therapeutic antibodies. It also evades neutralization by antibodies induced by infection or vaccination more efficiently than the Delta variant. This suggests that therapeutic antibodies may not be effective against the Omicron variant, and double vaccination with BNT162b2 may not provide adequate protection against severe disease caused by this variant.

Computational Design of Miniproteins as SARS-CoV-2 Therapeutic Inhibitors

Bahaa Jawad et al.

Summary: In this study, miniprotein RBD inhibitors were designed and simulated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Through truncation and amino acid substitutions, the binding affinity with RBD was enhanced, providing insights into general principles for designing potential therapeutics for SARS-CoV-2.

Characterization of the emerging B.1.621 variant of interest of SARS-CoV-2

Katherine Laiton-Donato et al.

Summary: The emergence of the B.1.621 lineage, considered a variant of interest (VOI), with substitutions affecting the Spike protein, has the potential to impact the epidemiology of the virus. In cities near theoretical herd immunity, this lineage has rapidly increased in frequency, indicating a possible epidemiologic impact. Further studies are needed to assess the biological and epidemiologic roles of the substitutions found in the B.1.621 lineage.

Molecular basis of immune evasion by the Delta and Kappa SARS-CoV-2 variants

Matthew McCallum et al.

Summary: The transmission of SARS-CoV-2 leads to the emergence of variants, such as the B.1.617.2 (Delta) variant, which dampens the in vitro potency of vaccine-elicited serum neutralizing antibodies. Mutations in the B.1.617.1 (Kappa) and Delta spike glycoproteins alter key antigenic sites, affecting the recognition by monoclonal antibodies. The angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 binding affinities of Kappa and Delta are comparable to the Wuhan-Hu-1 isolate, while Delta+ exhibits significantly reduced affinity.

Additional Positive Electric Residues in the Crucial Spike Glycoprotein S Regions of the New SARS-CoV-2 Variants

Piotr H. Pawlowski

Summary: This study analyzed the changes in formal charge of 34 SARS-CoV-2 lineages from September 2020 to June 2021 and found that positive mutations, especially in the spike protein, were associated with an increase in COVID-19 case fatality rate. The data mining confirmed the importance of additional positive charge in enabling virus impact on immunity.

Electrostatic Interactions Explain the Higher Binding Affinity of the CR3022 Antibody for SARS-CoV-2 than the 4A8 Antibody

Hung Nguyen et al.

Summary: Understanding the structure of how antibodies bind SARS-CoV-2 at an atomic level is crucial for developing more effective treatments for Covid-19. Using simulations, it was found that CR3022 has a higher affinity for the virus than 4A8, with electrostatic interactions playing a key role in this difference. This could guide the development of new antibodies with charged amino acids for combating Covid-19.
