Summary: Genetic variants of SARS-CoV-2, particularly the Delta variant, have had a significant impact on the global COVID-19 pandemic. Delta variants are causing widespread COVID-19 and are associated with vaccine breakthrough cases. A study conducted in Houston Methodist hospital system found that Delta variants accounted for almost all COVID-19 cases and had a higher rate of vaccine breakthrough than other variants. However, fully vaccinated individuals had a lower hospitalization rate. The study also showed that vaccines used in the United States are highly effective in reducing severe COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, and deaths.

Summary: The newly reported Omicron variant shows new salt bridges and hydrogen bonds formed by mutated residues in the receptor binding domain, compensating for reduced ACE2 binding affinity. It also exhibits increased antibody evasion, which likely contributes to its rapid spread.

Summary: The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, known for its high ability to evade neutralizing antibodies, has been found to have 34 mutations in the spike protein, with 15 of them occurring in the receptor-binding domain (RBD). A cryo-EM structure of the Omicron spike protein reveals that it is exclusively in the 1-RBD-up conformation, with high mobility of RBD. These mutations in the spike protein cause steric clashes and altered interactions at antibody-binding surfaces, as well as changes in local regions that interfere with antibody recognition.

Summary: Despite progress in understanding COVID-19, limited mechanistic insight into immunological factors and disease severity remains. Scientists generated a mouse-adapted SARS-CoV-2 strain, maVie16, and found that cytokine-driven immunopathology and ACE2 dependence determine disease severity. This study provides a new tool for discovering therapies.

Summary: In this study, the cryo-electron microscopy structures of the B.1.1.529 (Omicron) variant of SARS-CoV-2 were determined, and receptor binding domain (RBD) antibodies were evaluated for their ability to bind and neutralize this variant. The study found that certain monoclonal antibodies still retained substantial inhibitory activity and identified combinations of antibodies with synergistic neutralization.

Summary: This study compares the immunogenicity and durability of BNT162b2-mRNA and CoronaVac-inactivated vaccines in fully vaccinated individuals in Hong Kong. The results show that both vaccines induce neutralizing antibodies and spike-specific CD4 T cell responses, but CoronaVac vaccine induces lower immune responses compared to BNT162b2 vaccine. Against SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern, CoronaVac vaccine shows weaker neutralizing antibody responses compared to BNT162b2 vaccine. Three months after vaccination, neutralizing antibody levels to variants of concern decrease, along with waning memory T cell responses, especially among CoronaVac vaccine recipients.

Summary: The current COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the importance of a One Health approach to emerging zoonotic disease events. Experimental studies and epidemiological data have shown that certain animal species, such as cats, ferrets, hamsters, bats, and non-human primates, can be infected with and transmit SARS-CoV-2, while others like dogs, pigs, and poultry appear to have limited susceptibility. Most animal infections are believed to be from close contact with COVID-19 patients, and investigations into potential animal-to-human transmission cases are ongoing.

Summary: The combination therapy of remdesivir with recombinant soluble ACE2 shows significant therapeutic effects against SARS-CoV-2 in both cell and kidney organoid models. By targeting two different modalities of the virus's life cycle, this approach improves therapeutic windows. The study lays the groundwork for investigating combinatorial regimens in future COVID-19 clinical trials.

Summary: The race to develop vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 variants, such as B.1.1.7, B.1.351, and P.1, is ongoing as these variants have mutations in the spike protein, potentially leading to immune escape. A structure-function analysis of B.1.351 revealed tighter ACE2 binding and widespread evasion from monoclonal antibody neutralization, particularly driven by the E484K mutation.

Summary: This study investigated the diversification patterns of the spike protein in different clades of SARS-CoV-2 and estimated the nucleotide evolutionary rate, revealing multiple haplotypes with few nucleotide differences diverging from a common ancestor. The most frequent haplotype varied among different clades, and the evolutionary rate for the spike protein was found to be relatively consistent across clades after nine months of the pandemic. This evolutionary analysis is important for understanding potential consequences on viral transmission, response to antivirals, and vaccine efficacy.

Summary: The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 is expected due to the nature of virus replication. The selection and establishment of variants in the human population depend on viral fitness and on molecular and immunological selection pressures. This article discusses how mechanisms of replication and recombination may contribute to the emergence of current and future variants of SARS-CoV-2.

Over 64 vaccine candidates are being developed globally, aiming to induce antibodies to prevent viral entry. Thirteen vaccine candidates are currently in Phase 3 clinical trials, showing promising progress towards approval for large-scale immunizations.

Summary: This study investigates the role of enhancer landscapes in governing transcriptional diversity and subtype identity in GBM, uncovering previously unrecognized layers of intertumor heterogeneity. The research also reveals the topographies of transcriptional enhancers and core regulatory circuitries in four molecular subtypes of primary tumors, as well as the core oncogenic dependency on super-enhancer-driven factors in GBM. The findings provide insights into molecular classification, pathogenesis, and therapeutic interventions for GBM through profiling of transcriptional enhancers.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic is caused by a novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, with the spike protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) being a critical factor in viral infectivity. Research indicates that certain viral mutations may increase binding affinity to human receptors, but bat SARS-like CoV has difficulty infecting humans, while pangolin CoV may be infectious. The study provides insights into the evolution of early SARS-CoV-2 variants and supports ongoing surveillance of spike mutations for drug and vaccine development.

Summary: The SARS-CoV-2 B.1.617 Delta variant, first identified in India in 2020, has become dominant in some regions and is spreading to many countries. This variant shows resistance to certain monoclonal antibodies and antibodies in convalescent sera, as well as reduced neutralization by some COVID-19 vaccines. Administration of two doses of the vaccine is needed for a neutralizing response against the Delta variant.

Summary: The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 during the COVID-19 pandemic is primarily characterized by purifying selection, with a small number of sites evolving under positive selection. Variants in the spike protein's receptor-binding domain and the nucleocapsid protein region with NLS are enriched with positively selected amino acid replacements. These replacements form a connected network of apparent epistatic interactions and are indicators of major partitions in the SARS-CoV-2 phylogeny. The global virus diversity has been steadily increasing, with distinct periods based on phylogenetic distances and key mutations.
