Spike mutation D614G alters SARS-CoV-2 fitness.

TL;DR: Hamsters infected with SARS-CoV-2 expressing spike D614G (G614 virus) produced higher infectious titres in nasal washes and the trachea, but not in the lungs, supporting clinical evidence showing that the mutation enhances viral loads in the upper respiratory tract of COVID-19 patients and may increase transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutralization of SARS-CoV-2 spike 69/70 deletion, E484K and N501Y variants by BNT162b2 vaccine-elicited sera.

TL;DR: In this paper, three severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viruses containing key spike mutations from the newly emerged United Kingdom (UK) and South African (SA) variants: N501Y from UK and SA; 69/70 deletion + N 501Y+D614G from UK; and E484K from SA.
Journal ArticleDOI

An infectious cDNA clone of SARS-CoV-2

TL;DR: The reverse genetic system and reporter virus provide key reagents to study SARS-CoV-2 and develop countermeasures and were successfully used to evaluate the antiviral activities of interferon (IFN).
