Multiple pathways for SARS-CoV-2 resistance to nirmatrelvir

Sho Iketani et al.

Summary: Nirmatrelvir, an experimental oral antiviral, has shown clinical usefulness against COVID-19. However, there is concern that SARS-CoV-2 could develop resistance to this drug. In vitro studies have demonstrated that highly resistant viruses can emerge from SARS-CoV-2 when exposed to Nirmatrelvir, with mutations in the 3CL protease. These findings provide insights into the mechanisms of resistance and can inform the development of next-generation protease inhibitors.

Real-world COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness against the Omicron BA.2 variant in a SARS-CoV-2 infection-naive population

Jonathan J. Lau et al.

Summary: The SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant is more transmissible and can evade vaccine-derived immunity. First-generation vaccines show effectiveness against severe disease and death, but there is limited evidence on their effectiveness against all Omicron infections. A study conducted in Hong Kong during a large Omicron BA.2 epidemic found that three and four doses of BNT162b2 or CoronaVac were effective in preventing Omicron infection, but the effectiveness decreased over time. This highlights the need for updated vaccines and continuous monitoring of vaccine effectiveness.

Low neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.2.75.2, BQ.1.1 and XBB.1 by parental mRNA vaccine or a BA.5 bivalent booster

Chaitanya Kurhade et al.

Summary: This study reported on the neutralizing activities of a BA.5 bivalent booster against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron sublineages. The results showed that the BA.5 bivalent booster had good neutralizing efficacy against BA.4/5 but weaker efficacy against BA.2.75.2, BQ.1.1, and XBB.1. Previous infection significantly enhanced the strength and breadth of neutralization induced by the BA.5 bivalent booster. These data support a vaccine update strategy that matches newly emerged SARS-CoV-2 variants.

SABRes: in silico detection of drug resistance conferring mutations in subpopulations of SARS-CoV-2 genomes

Winkie Fong et al.

Summary: The emergence of drug resistance in SARS-CoV-2 is a significant threat to COVID-19 control. Some variants of the virus are naturally resistant to multiple antiviral drugs. In this study, a bioinformatic tool called SABRes was developed to detect drug resistance mutations in SARS-CoV-2 genomes. The tool was applied to analyze 25,197 genomes from the Australian SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and identified 299 genomes with resistance mutations to five antiviral therapeutics. Timely recognition of these mutations, especially within viral subpopulations, is critical for monitoring SARS-CoV-2 drug resistance.

Resistance of Omicron subvariants BA.2.75.2, BA.4.6, and BQ.1.1 to neutralizing antibodies

Delphine Planas et al.

Summary: Convergent evolution of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.2, BA.4, and BA.5 lineages have led to the emergence of several new subvariants, including BA.2.75.2, BA.4.6, and BQ.1.1. These subvariants carry additional mutations in the spike protein, potentially increasing transmissibility and evading immune responses. The study found that the efficacy of monoclonal antibodies and serum from vaccinated individuals against these subvariants varies.

Evaluation of SARS-CoV-2 isolation in cell culture from nasal/nasopharyngeal swabs or saliva specimens of patients with COVID-19

Shunsuke Yazawa et al.

Summary: It was found that SARS-CoV-2 can be efficiently isolated from clinical specimens such as nasal/nasopharyngeal swabs or saliva in cultured cells. This study examined the efficiency of viral isolation, including mutant strains, in nasal/nasopharyngeal swab or saliva specimens. The results showed that the isolation efficiency of SARS-CoV-2 in saliva specimens was significantly lower than that in nasal/nasopharyngeal swab specimens. Additionally, lactoferrin and amylase in saliva were found to inhibit the infection of SARS-CoV-2 pseudotyped viruses.

Neutralization, effector function and immune imprinting of Omicron variants

Amin Addetia et al.

Summary: The recently emerged BQ.1.1 and XBB.1.5 variants of SARS-CoV-2 have a higher affinity for the host ACE2 receptor and more efficiently promote fusion with host cell membranes compared to earlier Omicron variants. Although the neutralizing activity is reduced, vaccine-induced human plasma antibodies still cross-react with and trigger effector functions against current Omicron variants, providing a mechanism of protection against disease.

Emerging SARS-CoV-2 Variants: Genetic Variability and Clinical Implications

Aakriti Dubey et al.

Summary: The sudden rise in COVID-19 cases in 2020 and the emergence of fast-spreading variants have created a worrisome situation worldwide. New variants with mutations that outcompete existing circulating variants are frequently reported, raising concerns about the efficacy of vaccines, increased transmissibility, immune escape, and diagnostic failures. Although not yet validated, it is believed that SARS-CoV-2 is acquiring new mutations to gain a fitness advantage for rapid transmission or to overcome immune resistance. Significant evolution of SARS-CoV-2 has been observed since its first appearance in 2019, but the impacts of these mutations in many variants have not been analyzed. This article provides a comprehensive review of the emerging variants of SARS-CoV-2, key mutations in the viral genome, and the possible impacts on current prevention and therapeutic strategies.

Omicron: A Heavily Mutated SARS-CoV-2 Variant Exhibits Stronger Binding to ACE2 and Potently Escapes Approved COVID-19 Therapeutic Antibodies

Masaud Shah et al.

Summary: The new SARS-CoV-2 variant Omicron has enhanced transmissibility and multiple mutations that may weaken the effectiveness of therapeutic antibodies. Computational studies have shown that Omicron binds to ACE2 with a higher strength and specific mutations contribute significantly to the binding energies. These mutations also result in a drop in the electrostatic potential between RBDOmic and monoclonal antibodies, particularly etesevimab, bamlanivimab, and CT-p59. Sotrovimab, which targets a conserved epitope on the Spike protein, could be used as a cocktail therapy for Omicron-driven COVID-19.

Mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase confer resistance to remdesivir by distinct mechanisms

Laura J. Stevens et al.

Summary: This study identified mutations in the nonstructural protein 12 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that confer resistance to the antiviral drug remdesivir. These mutations result in decreased preference for the drug as a substrate and can be transferred to other betacoronaviruses, causing replication defects and up to 38-fold resistance. The findings highlight the importance of further research to understand and prevent the emergence of remdesivir resistance mutations in clinical settings.

Antibody evasion by SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants BA.2.12.1, BA.4 and BA.5

Qian Wang et al.

Summary: SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants BA.2.12.1 and BA.4/5 have become dominant in the United States and South Africa, raising concerns about their ability to evade neutralizing antibodies and compromise the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines and therapeutic monoclonals. A systematic antigenic analysis reveals that BA.2.12.1 and BA.4/5 have different levels of resistance to antibodies, with BA.2.12.1 being modestly resistant and BA.4/5 being substantially resistant. Certain mutations in the spike protein facilitate antibody escape, but compromise the spike affinity for the viral receptor. Only bebtelovimab retains full potency against both subvariants.

SARS-CoV-2 nsp14 Exoribonuclease Removes the Natural Antiviral 3′-Deoxy-3′,4′-didehydro-cytidine Nucleotide from RNA

Nicholas H. Moeller et al.

Summary: This article describes the proofreading mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 and how its non-structural protein 14 (nsp14) removes misincorporated nucleotides during RNA synthesis. It also explores the impact of this mechanism on the efficacy of antiviral nucleoside/nucleotide analogues. The study shows that nsp14 ExoN efficiently processes RNA strands terminated with specific chain-terminating nucleotides, while the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is more susceptible to termination by other nucleotides. These findings suggest that nsp14 ExoN may play a role in protecting the virus from certain antiviral nucleotides, and that SARS-CoV-2 enzymes have adapted to minimize their antiviral effect.

The rise and spread of the SARS-CoV-2 AY.122 lineage in Russia

Galya Klink et al.

Summary: The Delta epidemic in Russia is mostly derived from a single import event or closely timed imports from a poorly sampled location. More than 90% of Delta samples in Russia exhibit a pair of rare mutations, classifying them into the AY.122 sublineage. The high prevalence of AY.122 in Russia is likely due to a random founder effect rather than a transmission advantage, as its frequency has not increased in other countries where it has been observed.
