Abstract During the COVID‐19 pandemic, genetic variants of SARS‐CoV‐2 have been emerging and spreading around world. Several endemic were found in United Kingdom, South Africa, Japan, India between 2020 April 2021. Studies shown that many are more infectious than early wild strain produce immune escape. These brought new challenges to prevention control COVID‐19. This review summarizes analyzes biological characteristics different amino acid mutations epidemic escape variants. We hope provide scientific reference for monitoring, prevention, measures development strategy second‐generation vaccine.

As the global severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic expands, genomic epidemiology and whole genome sequencing are being used to investigate its transmission evolution. Against backdrop of emergence "variants concern" (VOCs) during December 2020 an upsurge in a state western part India since January 2021, analysis spike protein mutations using sequence structural approaches were undertaken identify possible new variants gauge fitness current circulating strains. Phylogenetic revealed that newly identified lineages B.1.617.1 B.1.617.2 predominantly circulating. The signature possessed by these strains L452R, T478K, E484Q, D614G P681R protein, including within receptor-binding domain (RBD). Of these, at residue positions 452, 484 681 have been reported other globally lineages. RBD T478K E484Q may possibly result increased ACE2 binding while furin cleavage site could increase rate S1-S2 cleavage, resulting better transmissibility. two mutations, L452R indicated decreased select monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) affect their neutralization potential. Further vitro/in vivo studies would help confirm phenotypic changes mutant Overall, study emerged responsible for second wave COVID-19 Maharashtra. Lineage has designated as VOC delta variant interest kappa, they widely rest country well globally. Continuous monitoring emerging is essential.

The Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 has caused a new wave the COVID-19 epidemic in many countries. It is most infectious to date, and its high infectivity means that higher proportion population needs be vaccinated reduce disease burden, which poses substantial public health challenge.The evolution reviewed, including an overview Plus with K417N mutation RBD, may confer improved immune evasion ability. Decreases serum neutralizing antibody titers after vaccination against were greater than those Alpha but less Beta. protective efficacy existing vaccines have declined related number doses time since vaccination.The currently used are effective hospitalization/severe due variant. Accelerating popularization vaccination, improving coverage rate, implementation intervention measures, such as wearing masks, control spread other variants.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is an exceptional public health crisis that demands the timely creation of new therapeutics and viral detection. Owing to their high specificity reliability, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have emerged as powerful tools treat detect numerous diseases. Hence, many researchers begun urgently develop Ab-based kits for detection severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Ab drugs use COVID-19 therapeutic agents. detailed structure SARS-CoV-2 spike protein known, since this key infection, its receptor-binding domain (RBD) has become a major target development. Because RNA virus with mutation rate, especially under selective pressure aggressively deployed prophylactic vaccines neutralizing Abs, cocktails expected be important strategy effective treatment. Moreover, infection may stimulate overactive immune response, resulting in cytokine storm drives progression. Abs combat storms also been intense development treatments COVID-19. In addition drugs, are currently being utilized tests, including antigen immunoglobulin tests. Such tests crucial surveillance can used prevent spread Herein, we highlight some points regarding mAb-based pandemic.
