Rapidly spreading variants of SARS-CoV-2 that have arisen in the United Kingdom and South Africa share the spike N501Y substitution, which is of particular concern because it is located in the viral receptor binding site for cell entry and increases binding to the receptor. We generated isogenic N501 and Y501 SARS-CoV-2. Twenty human sera from the mRNA-based vaccine BNT162b2 trial exhibited equivalent neutralizing titers to the N501 and Y501 viruses.
在英国和南非出现的快速传播的严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)变体都有刺突蛋白N501Y替换,这尤其令人担忧,因为它位于病毒进入细胞的受体结合位点,会增加与受体的结合。我们构建了同基因的N501和Y501 SARS-CoV-2。来自基于信使核糖核酸的疫苗BNT162b2试验的20份人血清对N501和Y501病毒表现出同等的中和效价。
