SARS-CoV-2 variants B.1.351 and P.1 escape from neutralizing antibodies.

TLDR
In this article, the authors show that SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 variants B.1.7 (UK), B.351 (South Africa), and P.1 (Brazil) harbor mutations in the viral spike (S) protein that may alter virus-host cell interactions and confer resistance to inhibitors and antibodies.

Data-driven identification of SARS-CoV-2 subpopulations using PhenoGraph and binary-coded genomic data.

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors detected all the mutations in 186,682 SARS-CoV-2 isolates and encoded the genomic mutations in binary form and used an unsupervised learning classifier, namely PhenoGraph, to classify this information.

A pneumonia outbreak associated with a new coronavirus of probable bat origin

TL;DR: Identification and characterization of a new coronavirus (2019-nCoV), which caused an epidemic of acute respiratory syndrome in humans in Wuhan, China, and it is shown that this virus belongs to the species of SARSr-CoV, indicates that the virus is related to a bat coronav virus.
