Variants and synonyms

  • SARS-CoV-2 variant

Definition/description

However, the SARS-CoV-2 variant is likely to share a similar mechanism of action where the recombinant SARS-CoV-2 spike protein downregulates ACE2 expression and thereby promotes lung injury, as seen in the SARS-CoV variant [19].

Examples

We analyzed 68 sequences of SARS-CoV-2 variants in GISAID and found 4 variants with mutations in RBD (one has N354D/D364Y, two have V367F, and one has F342L).
